Breastfeeding is difficult especially in first 2 weeks so continue your efforts.
Try to breastfeed in every 2 hours. Each time possibly for 20 to 30 minutes. If the child is sleepy, then do wake her up.
Child should pass urine 4 to 6 times a day. If not passing then need to clear your doubts of difficulty in Breastfeeding.
Red colour in urine is due to protein crystals. It is like blood but not blood and is totally normal.
