A. Hello dear parent! Latch your baby well onto your breast and make a good skin contact with your baby while breastfeeding. The more your baby suckles your breastmilk directly the better milk supply. Consult a lactation expert for advice. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby. Keep Babyhug tummy roll on handy. Good luck and take care.
