A. I tried doing that by extracting breast milk into bottle but even then he is not happy drinks very little but at the same time if given FM he drinks it completely. His dad and his cousins have never drunk BM is it hereditary?

A. U Do one thing try expressing your breast feed with the help of a breast pump and that is what you should be giving to the child because if your child is liking to have made by the bottles that can possibly mean that you’re either breastfeeding is not sufficient or your flow is quite slow but with bottle is better that is why your child is differing a bottle over your breast feed
