Hi jsamantaray2009!
I am so sorry about your son! However, if he is not eating by mouth, then is he on feeing tube or intravenous drip? A child who does not cry at birth can have low oxygen to brain, an this can affect the suckling/feeding reflex. There appears to be missing piece of story here. Please take a second opinion if in doubt.
However, if you feel that the baby is not taking in much, maintain a height and weight record with his pediatrician. If he is gaining weight, and has normal developmental milestones, then he is fine. Take care!
