A. exclusive breastfeeding has to be continued till completion of 6 months of age and you have to drink plenty of water and at least 500 ml milk everyday as well as homemade food from cereals pulses vegetable milk and fruits daily e as well as you can go for shatavarii supplement which will also help in increasing the breast milk formation (eg lactonic granules, galact granules etc ) also take multivitamins iron calcium and vitamin d along with folic acid. follow all this steps to increase breast milk formation.

A. Hi mommy Wake up baby by gently tapping her legs or mouth Newborns need to be fed 8-12 times every 24 hours Once you’ve got the hang of it, most feeds take 20 minutes or so But in the early days and weeks, they might take up to an hour As your baby grows the time baby takes to feed will reduce And for most babies the number of feeds will reduce too
