Mom

I am not sure why you started bottle feeding such a small baby. It's easier to drink from bottle. that's why she is not sucking from breast.

There are educational videos on YouTube to help understand how to help baby to drink breast milk. Try watching them.

Express a little milk on breast before giving to baby. Use thumb and index finger to press breast slightly and wait for baby to open mouth maximum. Then keep it inside baby's mouth.

Entire black part of breast should be inside baby's mouth when she drinks properly.

Encourage mom to give breast milk. Don't give up easily. It will take some time for all moms and babies to learn it.
