This is how breastfeeding failed.
Some mothers lactate the moment they deliver.
Some may take a few days.
Even then, the milk is so little.
The secret is to let your baby suckle.
When baby suckle with time it sends the message to produce milk.
If your baby is sleeping most of the time.
Express the breast milk.
It is going to be painful but don't let this pull you down.
The milk will come.
Don't forget to eat healthy and lots of drink too.
What will the baby have while waiting for your breastmilk?
You can give infant formula but use spoon to feed.
Otherwise baby will forget how to suckle from the breast.
When breast feeding do not wash your nipple with soap.
It will make them dry and easily crack.
Once crack it is going ti be painful.
Let your baby suckle on the other breast while expressing on the painful site.
If you develop fever or pain...see doctor immediately.
