In addition to paying attention to the health of her newborn baby, a new mother also needs to pay extra attention to her own care after giving birth. Although the family will take extra care of the new mother after delivery, but it is still inevitable to suffer from a cold, especially in the fall and winter or winter and spring seasons. So, should a new mom continue breastfeeding even if she has a cold? How to breastfeed correctly? A. When a mom gets a cold, should she continue breastfeeding? The mother can continue to breastfeed during the common cold. And it is more important to continue breastfeeding because breastmilk has immunologically active substances, including lysozyme, immunoglobulin and so on. Generally speaking, when foreign aid is supplemented with proteins, they become amino acids through the digestive system and are no longer immunologically active. However, breast milk is special in that its immunologically active substances are not destroyed by gastric juices, so they reach the intestines with activity and are absorbed by the body. The immunoactive substances have the most pronounced effect on the intestinal and respiratory tracts. Therefore, the baby insists on eating breast milk to help enhance the baby’s resistance, which is incomparable to any formula milk and milk. Second, the mother suffered a cold how to correctly breastfeeding? 1. Wear a mask when breastfeeding If the symptoms of sneezing, runny nose and coughing are more obvious, you can wear a mask when breastfeeding your baby. Common colds usually do not require medication, as long as you pay attention to drink more water and rest. 2. Long intervals between medication and breastfeeding If, under the guidance of a doctor, to take some symptomatic drugs, in addition to reading the instructions for the drug, it is also recommended to take medication immediately after breastfeeding, so that the interval from the next breastfeeding longer, you can try to minimize the amount of drugs in the breast milk. 3. Ventilate more, keep the air circulating After a cold, we should pay attention to the ventilation of the environment to avoid cross-infection. Colds are upper respiratory tract infections, which are usually caused by various viruses in the air and spread through the respiratory tract. It is common for a family to suffer from colds one after another.
