A. hi initially days with newborns can be hard but please don't give up easily please keep trying to offer more and more breastfeeds try it with different feeding positions try nipple shield like Babyhug nipple shield you can start taking supplements like leptadin tablet or shatavary granular with warm milk which help to increase your breastmilk supply
