Father of a 6 yr 2 m old girl6 years ago
Q.

My daughter is 2.5 month. From last 3 days suddenly sometimes she denies breast sucking and don't take milk even she is hungry. If I take out the breast milk in bottle and give it to her she will have it nicely. Again after some feeding she will tahe it from breast. when she denies taking milk from breast if I try to force her she cries. I can't leave her hungry so I take it out in bottle and give her. But I am quite worried if she can have same mill from bottle why she deny taking it from breast.

A. hi check for flat or inverted nipples making latching difficult for the baby also check for the flow of milk if it is very slow then it takes lot of effort to get the desired amount and baby gets tired sucking if it is fast baby might not be able to adjust with the speed of flow
