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 breastfeedinge position and attachment. take plenty of water, home made diet, seasonal fruits and vegetabdles, milk for increasing breast milk for yourself. take 15 to 30 days weight and growth assessment by the doctor.
