Breast feeding

2019-02-07 22:36:30
My baby is 1.5 months old. When I try to breastfeed him, he sucks well for 5-7 mins on one side & then becomes restless & leaves the nipple. He sucks well again after changing side & does the same thing. Does he crib when milk supply becomes low? He is on mixed feeding of bottle & breastfeed since I have a low milk supply. How can I improve milk flow in this case?

Feed ur baby on one side at a time...10-15 min. is sufficient....hold the baby comfortably n don't disturb while feeding..mixed feeding is not good...Bottle feeding causes nipple confusion, U can use Lactare capsules for increasing ur milk production
