A. for low breast milk supply you need to take plenty of liquids and high fibre diet and give frequent feeding to your child so that milk production increases as it is a hormonal phenomenon regulated by signals to the brain so you should feel positively motivated and do not try to give formula milk unless advised by your paediatrician and if the weight gain and urinary output of your baby is normal .if required you can also take help from a lactation consultant who will guide you in a very proper way regarding es NVdtablishment of good lactation as well as will help you in relieving pain if you have any. medicines are not of much help in this but definitely your diet is very important.

A. It What is a common phenomenon of a child to Cry through the day it is not going to affect the brain of the child in any manner so don’t get confused with that but yes if your child is not accepting a feeding bottle right now with formula then give formula feeding with a spoon to the child that’s going to be a better thing
