A. Breastfeeding is advised once baby is independent of the feeding tube and able to swallow pump milk by the paladai. Every mother logs for the day when her baby starts breastfeeding.however some babies take some time to suckel well on the breast especially if they've been sick or extremely peterm it if mom has flat nipples.

A. Breastfeeding your new born baby has many advantages, perhaps most important, breast milk is best food for baby digestive system. It has nutriens that newborn baby needs, and all of it's components like protein, lactose and fat.

A. Hi mom If ur baby is sucking milk properly then no need to feed with paladai.. If ur baby is not able to suck then you can use this.. Keep the baby head a bit elevated while feeding and put whole of the nipple and most of the aerola in the babies mouth so that baby latches easily
