A. hi as mother's milk is best food for a child please stick to breastfeeding. the more your child latches, the more milk is produced. Massage your breasts with coconut oil. take healthy and well blanaced diet keep your body well hydrated you can take leptadin tablet or shatavary granular with warm milk for this. try different feeding position make skin to skin Contact while feeding your child maintain good hygiene
