A. Hello good morning !! Yes if the baby is unable to latch then you can express but manual expressing takes a lot of effort ,time consuming and also direct latch helps in baby's active jaw movements ,mother and baby bond and also improves milk production. Check if the baby has latch issues consult Lactation expert,changes in feeding position helps in latch issues or you can use nipple shield and continue direct latch.
