Hi<br> I agree with ritu, try to feed in a cozy atmosphere, avoid distractions, few babies cry because they feel hungry and avoid feeds, try follow a schedule of two to three hours. Change the position and find a comfortable position, hold ur baby's head elevated and if required keep a feeding pillow to help you with latching. As you keep feeding the baby your supply will come up spontaneously, do not worry about the supply.

Puja, your baby is too small and at this age babies either suck,cry or sleep. This seems like a latch problem to me. Please ensure you watch some videos if a correct latch or seek a lactation expert. Meanwhile,try sitting in a comfortable position supporting your back with pillows, keep two pillows on your lap and take the baby in comfortable cradle hold position, from the other hand,put the major part of aerola in babys mouth and hold it there till baby finishes eating,better expel some milk by hand pressing and then latch the baby. Milk supply iNitially is always less,as baby suckle the milk supply will be established. The more your baby sucks,the more your body will produce. Latch on baby in every hour to help establish milk supply. Drink lots of fluid. Add cumin to everything you eat. Eat oats,daliya,fennel seeds post every meal. 5agging a few articles to increase milk supply. It will take some time and patience but eventually the supply would only increase if your baby suckle! If you want to settle your mind of sufficient milk supply,do pump milk post every feed. All the best and let us know how it worked and ask questions 2hen in doubt but do not give up! &#128077; Happy feeding!
