A. pump it.See when baby has any new complain then better avoid any self medication. Show to a doctor for right and timely diagnosis and treatment. Thays a safe procedure.To increase weight you must add high energy foods like eggs paneer , soya , ghee in rice , khichdi etc.this will boost him ok.

A. Use Breast pump to express your breast feed from the other breast and give it to the check with the medium of a bottle because if you do not give milk from both the breast and actually it is going to dry up and the size will be different from the other breast because your child will continue sucking on to the other breast so will become big and small as well
