Latching issue
Baby is one and half month(50 days) old. Recently She is often deattaching from breast every or 2 min and not latching properly.Could notice that my milk supply has increased recently . How to make the baby latch properly . Please advise
Hello..
Milk production increases according to the baby’s age .
Patiently allow the baby to re latch after she takes a pause if u find the baby if not able to take more milk u can express 10-15 ml and feed through a spoon or paladai
But try avoiding bottle .
Next Steps
Please continue giving breast feeding and adequately burping the baby for atleast 20 minutes

Sometimes excess or Sudden spurt of milk makes the baby choke a little so baby detaches and relatches after a few minutes .
You can try expressing out about 10 ml or so of milk then latch the baby .
Consider getting a lactation consultation.
