Mom of a 2 yr 5 m old boy2 years ago

Q.

My son is 3 weeks old and he is not feeding from breast. Currently I am expressing milk from the pump and feeding him via spoon. Is this normal? daily I am trying to feed via breast but no hopes. Tried all lactation techniques as well. pls help me to overcome this.. or is this fine to have breast milk via spoon.. will this cause any issues in future?

A. no problem no issues but gradually try to feed directly from the breast at least while the baby is sleeping for further advice in this regard it is advisable to consult your doctor for physical examination and if there is need to do investigations also then only proper treatment can be given
