Dear Mother, I can understand your concern. If the baby is not taking milk we need to check if his urine count is less than 7 per day. Also if you feel your supply is low ,you need to  meet a Lactation Consultant to help you boost the supply .
Next Steps
Kindly Consult Online for further guidance.
Health Tips
