Dear parents,
Your child is suffering from faulty feeding habits.
Giving top milk is no solution.
1, ask mother to hold baby in one hand, above lap in level of breast & feed. While feeding have good latching, (see net for latching) air gulping would be less. The free hand of baby should be hold between thumb and index finger, should be press when ever child is sleepy & stop feeding. Feed the baby for 15to20 mintues.
Put the baby on left shoulder and pat over middle of back for 5minutes. Baby would Burp out 3to5 times. Now let her sleep over right elbow, apillow under her head.
See the result.
