A. Breastfeeding is always a very important factor for the baby and mother and many times there are some problem faced by mother because of either wrong position while feeding lack of proper diet stress related factors. A proper is counselling is required which can be done by a lactational counsellor along with a proper diet with plenty of liquids some supplements mguay be helptful like shatavari . Also try to avoid giving top milk in initial stage specially with bottle feeding which may be the culprit for lactational failure most of the time .

A. When the child does not gain proper weight with what you are feeding then there is a bright possibility that the feeding that you are giving is not enough for the child for weight gain so in this case if it’s only breastfeeding then I would recommend you to start giving formula feeding as well
