Hi, I blessed with a baby girl on sept 11 but she can't able take milk from mother, Till now we are collecting milk from mother through pump and feed to baby. Everyday same happening we tried so many ways to feed her but no usefull. Baby has difficulty to latching-on, is it latching problem or secretion of milk issue? If I need to use electric breast pump then which one to choose? Is it safe for mother? Could you help me regarding this issue or suggest me anything.

The most important thing is that the baby should get mothers milk. Electric pumps are safe for the mother. Medela is a good brand of electric pump. Please meet a lactation consultant. Baby will start latching soon. Don't worry
