Hiiii...I have delivered a baby boy almost 15 days before.My problem is that I am not able to breast feed him till now...I am giving him supplement(NAN1).He is not able to latch..I had problem of flat nipples.But I have been extracting breast milk using syringe...Now my nipples have been almost corrected but still he does not suck.When he is in good mood he simply puts the nipple in mouth but does not suck.When he is hungry he starts crying loudly and does not even hold the nipple. Pls suggest how to train him to feed? Should I buy a breast pump? I have heard that if the baby does not suck the milk production stops even if we use a pump... Is it true? Pls suggest.........
Hi, No, the breast milk will continue as long as you suck it out. Put the mouth of your baby firmly close to the nipples and push him inward towards you. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
