A member asked:

I've been pumping but losing breast milk, i'm pumping half of what i was b4, baby has been drinking from bottle is it to late for her to latch on?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe not: As long as there is some breast milk production you can "retrain" your baby to latch on again. It may take some effort on your part and patience.
