FAQs

Q1. How often should I give my child breast milk?

It is recommended to feed your newborn every two to three hours and in case of older babies, pay attention to your baby's hunger signals and feed them as and when required.

Q2. Can I breastfeed in a lying-down position?

Yes, you can breastfeed while side-lying. Ensure that your baby is properly positioned, with their mouth at your nipple and their body fully supported, to ensure their safety.

Q3. How often should I switch breasts while feeding?

When your baby slows down, start with one breast and move to the other. Breast alternating contributes to continued milk production, nutritional balance and ensures that your baby receives both foremilk and hindmilk.
