A. Also Have lot of skin to skin sessions with your baby. This is called kangaroo therapy. This will improve bteastmilk supply and encourage ur child to breastfeed.

A. The baby may have a nipple confusion. If u r parallely Breastfeeding as well as bottle feeding then u may try using Medela calma bottle and teats. It worked for my kids. This bottle works similar to Breastfeeding. The milk won't come unless the baby sucks. It will give the same feel as feeding from the mother. You may give it a try.
