Hello dear, Latching has a psychological and hormonal effect on breast milk production as well which pumping lacks obviously. So direct breast feeding is always better. If you have issues with latching, do consult a pediatrician or breastfeeding support groups to guide you better. They will help you in making the baby latch.
