What does breastfeeding on demand mean?

The so-called on-demand breastfeeding refers to the feeding method in which mothers do not have to feed their children strictly according to the time after delivery, but rather according to the needs of the baby, i.e. the child can get the mother’s milk whenever she is hungry, or the mother can breastfeed her child if she feels her milk is distended. In addition, the mother’s breasts can be emptied of milk knots in time to avoid unnecessary mastitis. As long as you are able to breastfeed on demand, most mothers can exclusively breastfeed their fetus, which is very helpful for the growth and development of the child, so you should have confidence in breastfeeding.
