All along, the topic of “breastfeeding” has made many new mothers feel “doubtful”, the reason for the doubt is not only related to “how to breastfeed”, but also intertwined with The reason for this is not only “how to breastfeed”, but also a lot of questions such as “will the body be deformed, have been breastfeeding does not come to the uterus on vacation will not recover”. To see the 10 breast milk problems that mothers are hotly debated. TOP1: feel that the child does not eat enough, is it that I do not have enough milk? Recently Baidu data out of a topic, really want to be the “milk bar” of the moms are “anxious”: the mother of the milk how much is closely related to the region, coastal areas are abundant milk bar, while inland areas are basically ” The demand for milk in coastal areas is high, while inland areas are basically in short supply. Can geography really determine how much milk is produced? Answer: There is no such data to show that the amount of milk produced is related to the region, but I think that the amount of milk produced is not related to the region, but the amount of milk is related to the sum of the volume of the mammary vesicles. Also, many people would think that a mother with large breasts has more milk, but the truth is that the size of the breasts is only related to the amount of fat, and large only reflects the amount of fat. The truth is that the size of your breasts is only related to the amount of fat, and bigger is just a reflection of more fat. The second is that the child sleeps well after sucking and has a sense of satisfaction; the third is the number of bowel movements. The second thing is that the mother who wants to be a “milk bar” should be convinced that you can produce as much milk as the child needs. Secondly, I don’t advocate taking drugs to promote milk, I advocate diet to promote milk, lactating mothers need sufficient high calorie diet, high protein diet; thirdly, diligent breastfeeding is also an effective way to promote milk secretion. TOP2: Can a mother continue to breastfeed if she is sick? If a breastfeeding mother is suffering from a cold or mastitis, can she continue to breastfeed? Answer: If you do not have a fever of more than 38.5 ℃, it is recommended to wear a mask while breastfeeding, reduce contact with the baby in daily life to avoid infection; second, for some suffering from mild mastitis mothers can continue to breastfeed, only severe mastitis patients, there has been a high fever, redness, swelling and pus when you need to stop breastfeeding the sick breast, but the other side of the breast without the disease as long as the mother used The other side of the breast that is not diseased can continue to feed the child as long as the mother uses medication that is not indicated as contraindicated for breastfeeding. TOP3: How do I choke on my baby’s milk? Many “milk bar” mothers raised, the baby is too small, each feeding children are easy to choke, the child a loose mouth, the milk sprayed into the baby’s face, encounter such a situation should do? Answer: Choking is generally not very common, it is recommended to check whether the amount of lactation is large, whether the child’s sucking speed is proportional to the amount of lactation, choking is generally related to the way of feeding, because breast milk or formula contain sugar, the mother can feed the baby 1-2 spoons of plain water (baby spoons) after feeding to reduce the accumulation of sugar in the throat. Suggestions: Adjust your breastfeeding position and squeeze your breasts with your fingers to flatten the milk ducts and control the rate of lactation. Also, if your child is crying a lot, pause breastfeeding halfway through the meal and pat the back to expel the air from the stomach before continuing to nurse. After nursing, pat the back for 5-10 minutes to prolong the burping time. TOP4: Does the heat (or cold) cause my child to have a bad appetite? Some parents say that their babies who used to eat milk once every 2 hours are not awake after a long time, and they don’t look for milk when they wake up. Answer: In general, children between 0 and 1 year old are basically in the “fierce period”, and nowadays, family conditions are better, so few children will have poor appetite due to environmental and climatic factors. It is difficult to assess the amount of milk your child sucks in a single feeding. At first, your child may be full after 5 minutes, but as your child grows up, the single sucking time can be extended to 10 minutes or more, which proves that your child inhales more adequately and is more resistant to satiety. Therefore, the interval between each meal is also longer than before. Suggestion: Weigh your child first to see if he or she has increased from the previous weight. However, sometimes a child’s poor appetite can be a sign of illness, such as a cold or gastrointestinal disease, and parents should monitor their child closely. If you find that your child is crying or not in good spirits, you can also go to the pediatrician. TOP5: If weaning is too cold or too hot, children will get sick easily? Older generations often say that children should not be weaned from breast milk when it is too cold or too hot, and that children will easily get sick after weaning at this time. Answer: If the child is nutritionally balanced, there is no problem with weaning in too hot or too cold weather. If your child does not eat any other dairy products except human milk, it is recommended that you do not wean your child. Now you can add other dairy products to distract your child’s attachment to breast milk and gradually wean him/her. TOP6: What do I need to add to my child’s diet if I am not lactating enough after work? After going to work, “milk mothers” often feel overwhelmed by breastfeeding, but not enough milk 700 children are prone to calcium deficiency, in the face of such a situation, what should be done? Answer: Generally, exclusive breastfeeding is advocated for 4-6 months, and then complementary foods should be added gradually, so in addition to breast milk, three meals should also be added to the diet, such as formula, yogurt, fresh milk, etc. Three major nutrients should be kept in balance: carbohydrates, fats and proteins. In addition, fruits and vegetables are also necessary. TOP7: Too long breastfeeding is likely to cause uterine sagging? A lot of mothers are confused, breastfeeding days “aunt” has not visited, and friends around threatened: so long does not come, I’m afraid it will lead to uterine prolapse. How long does it take to get a period when breastfeeding? Is it normal for breastfeeding not to have a period for 1 year? Answer: Exclusive breastfeeding is good for maternal health. It is normal not to have a period for a year, which can physiologically protect the uterus and ovaries. However, if you do not have a period, and if you do not use contraception, you should pay attention to exclude pregnancy during breastfeeding. The absence of menstruation during breastfeeding does not mean that the ovaries have not recovered and ovulation and pregnancy may occur. Pregnancy planning and appropriate contraceptive measures should be taken. The breastfeeding period advocates instrumental contraception. TOP8: breastfeeding for a long time breast will become “dry balloon”? “Body deformation” is the fear of many mothers, in order to breastfeeding, let the original proud bosom into a deflated bag seems to “sacrifice” a little big, so a lot of mothers who originally insisted on breastfeeding began to waver, using milk powder instead of breastfeeding. Answer: breastfeeding itself will not cause breast deformation, on the contrary, breastfeeding can promote the secretion of maternal oxytocin, which will enhance the elasticity of the breast. At the same time, the secretion of milk can consume a lot of fat in the body, which is conducive to the recovery of the body after childbirth, as well as the recovery of the uterus, reducing the risk of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. TOP9: Why does the baby only recognize the pacifier and not the mother? A mother said that she had been in breastfeeding mode before, but left her baby for more than a month in the middle of work, and as a result, her baby became obsessed with the pacifier in just a month’s time and was not willing to kiss and feed. Answer: This is a case of nipple confusion in the child. If you want to change this situation, you need to have some patience and confidence. Suggestions: Kiss before each feeding to gradually get your child to accept it. However, this cannot be corrected in a day or two and requires patience. Also, for mothers who need to travel, it is recommended to continue to stimulate both breasts with a breast pump for 5-10 minutes each time while traveling, until the lactation returns to the previous level. The breast milk expressed through the breast pump during the business trip can be stored in the refrigerator. TOP10: What should I do if my nipples are cracked? Is there anything I can do to help prevent cracked nipples? Answer: Apply a little milk to the nipples after each feeding, or use suet cream, then wipe the nipples with a warm towel before the next feeding. You also need to adjust your breastfeeding posture and try to keep the nipple and most of the areola contained by the baby. Suggestions: Do preventive work, do not wash your breasts with harsh shower gels; pay attention to the breastfeeding posture; after each breastfeeding it is recommended to apply suet cream.
