Hello, My baby is 1.5 months. due to less milk production Had to give her formula along with breastfeed. I introduced bottle feeding 15 days back and giving her expressed breast milk + formula. with the help of medicine my milk production has increased. but now my baby is not taking direct breast feed. I want to discontinue bottle. 1. how to get her to breastfeed directly by latching? 2. Is bottle feeding really bad for baby?
