A. if you are facing any problems regarding breastfeeding during your lactation period it is always better to take help from your lactation expert who will recommend you various methods for improvement. the phenomena of breastfeeding is completely related to hormones and the signal sent to the brain with your thoughts so it is very important to stay positively motivated and continue to put efforts.medicines re not of much help.if there is then you can apply cold press locally ab kyand take Dolo tablet which is safe during this period.

A. Hello dear parent!! Check if your baby is teething or having ear pain. Try as much to exclusively breastfeed your baby. Continue express feeding otherwise. If you are still concerned better consult your doctor for further assistance. Good luck and take care.
