A. Still try to for longer duration. if you have flat or inverted nipples, your baby may struggle to latch on. Go for a nipple shield that your baby is comfortable to suck else it may be difficult for baby to suck you can even take help from your doctor to chose the right one

Q. #AskTheExpert Hello doctor My 1 month old son goes to while I am nursing him. He latches for 5-10 mins and goes to sleep and wakes up in 5-10 mins and again cries for milk. I tried many ways like rub his ears, pamper his hair while nursing, tried to wake him hitting on legs but nothing is working. I am worried please guide me what to do. His is gaining weight properly and also sleeps properly at night.
