A. Hello.. apply nip care cream. Apply to nipples after breast-feeding. and remove or gentally wipe with soft cotton cloth and wash before nursing your baby. Use Nipple shields to protect sore nipples during feedings.

A. Hello sir Apply nip care ointment to get relief from sore nipples. Till then feed from the other side. One month baby can take around 40-60 ml of milk per feed. If ur baby is active and comfortable otherwise, passing out urine 6-8 times in a day, gaining weight then that means your baby is taking sufficient feed
