Baby not latching and breastfeeding
I am a mom of one month baby. As I got delivery through c section there was no milk for first four days. Hence baby was fed formula. Later while trying breastfeeding he was not latching, hence I was expressing and feeding him. Also tried multiple methods with consulting a lactation consultant, none of them worked. Whenever he was brought near the nipple, he just turns his mouth away. Now after a month my milk supply has drastically reduced. I am not sure what to do further for making him breastfeed and increase my supply. Can anyone guide me.
