Q.

I have flat nipples and the baby is not latching for more than 2 minutes. I am exclusively pumping and feeding her breast milk. However i am worried this would result in low milk supply in the future. Please help.

A. Hello dear parent! Try using a nipple shield while breastfeeding your baby if you are having flat nipples. Consult a lactation expert for further advice. Eat a well balanced healthy diet and keep yourself hydrated all through the day while breastfeeding your baby. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil. Good luck and take care.
