Problems during breastfeeding:

It is a common condition that a baby refuses breast-feeding. However it is possible to resolve it. When baby refuses the breast, mother will be worried, feel rejected and will be disappointed. If you can find the reason why baby is unenthusiastic about breastfeeding, you will resolve the problem by eliminating that reason. During the period when the baby refuses nursing, the breast should be emptied in an efficient way and support breast milk production.
Before each feeding session, the mother should offer but never force the baby to breastfeed. Afterwards without pausing the mother should express her milk. Attention should be paid to this so that the amount of breast milk production does not change when the baby goes back to nursing.
