you have to keep latching him on for 20 mins each side every 1 to 1. 5 hours... relax... play calming music if you want... flow of milk in the initial stages has a lot to do with emotions. it will come. you have to be patient. for me it was almost a month before I started feeling the let down or milk flowing sensation. also, you can check with your gynaecologist if you can take Leptaden tablets. it worked very well for me...

try latching him strictly on 2 hourly basis, n make note of his weight. pl consult pediatrician if he always resist to get feed.
