A. very important to see that position and attachment while breastfeeding the child is proper. if improper the child will continue to suck for long hrs without getting any milk meet lactational counsellor who will guide regarding this. see videos on youd tube for breastfeeding position and attachment. take plenty of water, home made diet, seasonal fruits and vegetables, milk for increasing breast milk for yourself. take 15 to 30 days weight and growth assessment by the doctor.

A. hello the baby may find it difficult if you are having flat nipple so you can try using nipple shield from babyhug so the baby can take feed and if it is not possible you can also express the milk and feed the baby or give baby infant formula milk
