A. Hello mom Sometimes babies make such habit but you have to keep trying and this is the only solution. If you will try to give milk to your baby when your baby is not sleeping then only baby will start accepting it in next few days. You have to feed your baby in every two hours gap and baby should be totally your mother’s milk
