#asktheexperts my baby is 20 days old. He is not latching directly for milk. since last three days we are feeding him formula milk or expressed milk through spoon. I am trying so many times in a day for latching him for feeding, but his response is like suddenly deep sleep or crying a lot at the time of direct feed.. what should I do now?

A. good afternoon you have to be a little bit hard hearted and make sure that you feed the baby after keeping the child hungry for some 10 to 15 minutes so that the child develops the habit of latching
