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 you tube for breastfeeding position and attachment. take plenty of water, home made f diet, seasonal fruits and vegetables, milk for increasing breast milk for yourself. take 15 to 30 days weight and growth assessment by the doctor. x

A. Maybe your child is not interested in having breastfeeding over outside milk for your child you can give cows milk buffalo milk whatever your child is comfortable taking and give more of solids to the child sometimes kids do have an aversion with milk as the age is doing and that’s very normal
