I've just had a baby, and I'm worried that she's not getting enough milk. What are some tips to make sure I'm feeding my baby correctly?

1. Make sure you're offering your baby the right amount of breastmilk every time. Aim for 8-12 feedings per day.
2. Try different positions when breastfeeding so that your baby can get more comfortable with it.
3. If your baby seems hungry but isn't latched on properly, try using a finger or two to help guide her mouth to the nipple.
4. Offer other liquids such as water, juice, and formula in addition to breastmilk. This will ensure that your baby gets all the nutrition they need.
5. Talk to your doctor if you're concerned about your baby's weight gain or lack of appetite.
