What are the methods of manual lactation

Step 1: Hot compress Wash your breasts and apply a hot towel soaked in hot water at about 40 degrees to 45 degrees for about 10-15min. Step 2: Massage Apply a little lubricant such as olive oil, hold your breasts up with your left hand, put your fingers together with your right hand and start pushing with your fingers from the root of your breasts towards your nipples in a combing style, pushing clockwise, gradually turning from light to heavy, for about 5-7min. Step 3: Knead with palms together in a semi-clenched fist, push clockwise from the root of the breast to the areola area with the small fissure muscle, with the force gradually turning from light to heavy, about 5-7 min. Step 4: Squeeze with the second finger of the right hand, pull the nipple upward 3-5 times, then hold the breast with the left hand and place the second finger of the right hand on the edge of the areola in the shape of a duck’s beak. Squeeze out the milk in the order of downward and inward, and then lift upward. The process of squeezing should be gentle to avoid violence that could damage the areola and aggravate the condition. Take the nipple as the center and squeeze in at least four directions in a beige shape. Step 5: Drain the hard knot This step is mainly to drain the hard knot, first pushing and rubbing again at the hard knot, then pushing the hard knot to the nipple with the left hand to put pressure on it, and squeezing with the right hand’s index thumb at the edge of the areola towards the nipple, squeezing in the same direction as the hard knot and the nipple until the hard knot shrinks or disappears.
