A. please give only breastmilk till completion of six months. use a breastpump before feeding sessions to make nipple so that child can suck. never offer bottle otherwise your child won't have your milk

A. If your newborn can't latch on correctly because your nipples don't stick out of your breast, try pumping for a minute or two before you begin breastfeeding. The suction of a breast pump will sometimes draw out and lengthen the nipples enough for your child to latch on.
