Q.
My baby is 1 month and 10 days old. Since day 1 he is nothing taking feed directly from my breast. I was using nipple shield but It was taking me an hour for one feed so my gynecologist suggested me breast pump and bottle. I am using feeding bottle to feed him but in the middle I am trying to breastfeed him directly, for once or twice he took directly from mine but after that he refuse to take and cries constantly . How can I make him breastfeed ?
