better you visit the Neonatologist as baby might have other issues like colic. also remember that the breastmilk is the best formula for the baby and skin to skin contact between mother and baby build up strong relationships between mom and baby. try to extract breast milk for your job hours. you can keep bf in room temperature for 3 to 4 hours and can keep in fridge upto 4 to 5days. just make bf little warm before giving to the baby.

Thank you doctor for your response. I am extracting breast milk and trying to give it through feeder and spoon but she doesnt take it and with each spoon she cries alot. This is the reason why we are kuch worried. I have also purchased electric pump so she could have it through feeder and spoon but she is not accepting it.
Im also giving her Digas drops and nonnisan syrup for her colic and gas issues.
