Breastfeeding and unlatching
My 4months old baby feeds for only 5 minutes and keeps unlatching and again open her mouth and search for nipple and sometimes if I forcefully keeps the breast inside her mouth she gets fussy. This happens mostly at day time but when she is asleep at night she feeds for 20 25 minutes. I am concern whether i am low milk supply but if I press milk is there.please reply
