A. Very important to see that position and attachment while breastfeeding the child is proper. If improper the child will continue to suck for long hrs without getting any milk Meet lactational counsellor who will guide regarding this. See videos on you tube for breastfeeding position attachment. Take plenty of water, home made diet, seasonal fruits and vegetables, milk for increasing breast milk. Take 15 to 30 days weight and growth assessment by the doctor. drs help is important now for this

A. good morning I would suggest that all the time the baby is not able to learn to latch properly you should try to use a nipple shield when you are feeding the baby this will make the child comfortable for feeding
