The two most important factors for good lactation are a good healthy balanced diet by you and regular suckling by the baby. If nipples are inverted,use nipple shield. Reglan and perinorm are two brands of the SAME medicine,stop one of them!! Also,add cap lactare 2 caps thrice a day,both for 2 weeks. If effective,continue for atleast 3 months,otherwise stop both meds and add top formula feed.
