Q. #AskTheExpert My baby is 2month 2weeks old. Her nipples are little hard. I haven't squeezed milk out of her nipples since her birth. My aunts are suggesting to squeeze out that milk else her breasts would grow huge in size in future or when she enters her puberty age. Should I listen to them and squeeze the milk out? I personally don't want to risk it because I don't want to see my baby in pain. Please help.
