Other anatomical problems can also result in improper feeding. It is very important that the milk is removed from the breast while feeding, in order to ensure that adequate breast milk is produced. If your baby is not able to do this, then you should express the milk.Nursing frequently will result in the milk being removed from the breast properly. You should nurse your child for however long he wants to and at a frequency of 1.5 to 2 hours.You must avoid pacifiers and bottles as it can lead to nipple confusion.
