How to start breastfeeding after cesarean section

A woman can start breastfeeding as soon as possible after a cesarean section by wiping her nipples clean with a wet washcloth and quickly letting the baby suckle. After giving birth, the child needs to be allowed to suckle on the nipple as soon as possible, and before doing so, the nipple needs to be cleaned and can be wiped with a hot towel. When sucking, you should pay attention to let the whole nipple put into the child’s mouth, even if you can’t produce milk immediately after cesarean section, but you should let the child suck to promote the production of milk as soon as possible, to meet the needs of the child’s growth and development. In addition, after the cesarean delivery, women should also pay attention to a reasonable diet, eat more protein-rich foods, such as eggs, pork chop soup, etc., to promote the full secretion of milk. If there is a situation such as too little milk, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and make appropriate interventions under the doctor’s guidance.
