Have a flattered nipple and insufficient milk for me, I can't feed my 22 days old baby. I am using nipple field also. Am trying to increase breast milk via food. But I feel very sad. I cannot latch my baby correctly. Now am feed both breast milk and formula milk. Please suggest me how can I increase breast milk and how to recover the flattered nipple to normal. Please suggest me.

Whether milk is sufficient or not only paediatrician can decide by examining baby. Flat nipple does not come in way of breast feeding as more important is pressure on areola.
