A. exclusive breastfeeding has to be continued till completion of 6 months of age and you have to drink plenty of water and at least 500 ml milk everyday as well as homemade food from cereals pulses vegetable milk and frfuits daily e as well as you can go for shatavari sucpplement which will also help in increasing the breast milk formation also take multivitamins iron calcium and vitamin d along with folic acid. follow all this steps to increase breast milk formation.

A. Hi mom Have shatavari with warm milk twice a day to increase bm. The more you feed the more milk production will be there.. Apply nip care ointment to get relief from sore and cracked nipples. Till then u can try to breastfeed ur baby using nipple shield like babyhug nipple shield.
