When your baby reaches a certain stage of growth, the nutrition of breast milk can no longer meet the growth needs, so in addition to gradually adding complementary foods, you should also gradually wean your baby. The main ways to wean your baby during breastfeeding are weaning and natural breastfeeding, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. 1. Weaning: For those who do not have a plan to breastfeed their next child and do not have enough milk, or for those who require weaning as soon as possible due to external factors such as work and life, you can try weaning. Weaning has a short time and quick effect, but it is not easy for babies to adapt to it. At the same time, attention should be paid to correct milking, reducing breast stimulation and reasonable diet. If your breasts are uncomfortably swollen, you can gently squeeze out a little milk. 2. Natural breastfeeding: For mothers who have plans to breastfeed their next child and have enough milk, it is recommended to choose natural breastfeeding, which has the advantages of relatively slow weaning speed and easy adaptation for babies. Natural weaning has the advantage of being slower and easier for the baby to adapt. The mother can reduce the number of feedings and the duration of feedings, and eat less soups and protein-rich foods to achieve the goal of natural weaning. However, the process of returning milk can be relatively painful. If breast pain and swelling occur, you can drink malt water to relieve the swelling and pain. If breast lumps are large, you can use your hands or a breast pump to assist in draining the milk. You can also use hot towels to apply hot compresses to your breasts to help reduce swelling and make the stagnant milk drain as soon as possible; in addition, you should pay attention to your body condition when weaning, and if there is a rise in milk, you should drain the excess milk in time to avoid causing acute mastitis.
