A. you have to check videos for that . more you feed your baby, more is the stimulation and more is the breast milk production. also relaxed mind , love for the baby, confidence while feeding help in oxytocin release and hence augment milk production. maintain good diet, hydration. babies tend to prefer easier way of feeding . avoid use of bottles to avoid nipple confusion. restrict formula slowly so that baby will try to suck more at breast.

A. If you have flat or inverted nipples, your baby may struggle to latch on. Go for a nipple shield that is shaped like an extended nipple, and gives the baby a larger area to latch onto. Feeding through the shield helps draw the nipple out, to make it easier for baby to latch onto the breast.
