A. If baby is passing adequate urine ie minimum 6-8 times per day then no need to worry (20 -22 times per day also normal). Feed ur baby as per baby's demand only Don't force for feed. It will help. Exclusive breast feed ur baby till 6month of age. ma

A. good evening I would recommend you to temporarily to really try to use a nipple shield in order to feed the baby this will help to make sure that the baby is able to actually latch properly and have milk for a longer duration of time
