Baby cannot wear mask as they might suffocate.

Babies won't be able to wear mask at this age, nor is it advisable as it may accidentally cut off baby's air supply.

Not advisable unless doctor has recommended

If can wait, then wait. No need to rush milk production as it will come in time.

Pumping wont work. Will end up wasting colostrum as it will be stuck to the flange. Need to squeeze and suck with syringe. The nurse will teach you the right method and provide u with free syringes.
