The birth of a baby brings endless joy to a family, and breastfeeding is the natural way for a mother to give her baby a wonderful start of life. As we all know, breast milk is the best food for babies, its high nutritional value, rich in antibodies, easy to digest and absorb, and moderate temperature, easy and economical to consume, which is very beneficial to the healthy growth and development of babies. However, many mothers believe that breastfeeding is the main cause of CUP shrinkage and sagging and loose breasts. However, experts point out that breastfeeding will not affect the original appearance of the breasts, and if breastfeeding can be done under the guidance of a doctor, the mother’s breasts will also become fuller and firmer after the breastfeeding period. How to breastfeed correctly? Before and after breastfeeding, gently wash your nipples and areolas with warm boiled water to keep your breasts locally clean and dry. And squeeze out a little milk to soften the nipple before sucking. The mother’s body should be relaxed and in a comfortable position, lying on her side or in a sitting position, so that the baby’s mouth and jaws should always be close to the mother’s breast, the mother’s chest and the baby’s chest should be close together, and the mother’s abdomen and the baby’s abdomen should be close together, i.e. “three close”. Let the baby open his mouth wide so that the nipple and most of the areola are in the baby’s mouth for sucking. The “triple stick” helps the baby to suck out all the milk from the mother’s breast. When breastfeeding is discontinued, the baby will spit out the nipple automatically if you gently press the baby’s jaw with your index finger. Do not pull the nipple out forcibly to avoid damaging it. It is important to keep track of the breastfeeding period and the duration of each breastfeeding session. The normal breastfeeding period for babies is usually 4 to 10 months. The duration of each nursing session should not be too long, and may vary depending on the situation of the mother and baby. For a full-term baby, each breast can be nursed for about 10 minutes, which is about 1O minutes for the baby to suck out all the milk in one breast. Therefore, the mother should keep the nursing time to about 20 minutes per breast. If a mother has a good grasp of the breastfeeding period and the duration of each breastfeeding session, it will help to control the amount of milk produced in the breast, thus avoiding the phenomenon of sagging of the breast after breastfeeding due to excessive enlargement. How to prevent and treat damaged nipples and areolas? Prevention of nipple areola damage should start during pregnancy, i.e. after 6 to 8 months of pregnancy, repeatedly scrub the nipples with a towel dipped in hot water every day to make the epidermis proliferate, thicken and become more elastic to withstand the baby’s sucking. If you have flat or sunken nipples, you should pull your nipples several times a day in the middle of pregnancy to help them protrude outward so that your baby doesn’t have difficulty sucking. The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and most popular items. The symptoms are cracked nipples, pain, or a small amount of bleeding and oozing, and in severe cases affects breastfeeding and sleep. Nipple follicles are an early manifestation of nipple cracking, mostly due to incorrect breastfeeding posture and other reasons. The nipples with follicles can suspend feeding for 24 hours, and nipple cracking can suspend feeding for 24 to 48 hours, while squeezing out a little milk and applying it to the nipples. The painful swelling of the breast with a breast pump to suck out the milk. If the chaps are serious, cod liver oil or Chinese medicine can be applied to the affected area and covered with sterile gauze to prevent infection. ”Green Breast Exercise” Breastfeeding mothers can massage their own breasts every night before going to bed. This is called the “green breast exercise”. It is based on the principle of deep laxation through aerobic exercise, which can avoid possible blockage and infection caused by milk left in the ducts, and can restore the breast to its previous shape, as well as repairing the uterus and ovaries. In addition, the mother should also do breast unblocking before pregnancy, so as to prevent future births due to breast blockage and can not breastfeeding, to add an “insurance” for their own health and baby. The specific method is: wet and hot compress breast 3~5min, left hand thumb and the rest of the 4 fingers open to form a “C” shape to hold the mammary gland up and down gently shaking, to the right hand fingers gently afraid to hit the mammary gland, the strength is appropriate to the mother can accept. Place the index, middle and ring fingers of the right hand together on the left breast. Then take the nipple as the center and make a circular massage from the outside of the breast to the inside of the breast in a clockwise direction. The right hand thumb and index fingers apart on the relative position of the areola, to the chest wall and squeeze the nipple root, squeeze and relax alternately, and rotate the position. Then use the left hand to massage the right breast in this way. Each breast can be massaged for 1 minute on each side. Two times a day. This massage method can promote the local blood circulation of the breast, increase the nutrition supply of the breast, and also help to promote the secretion of estrogen in the mother’s body. In addition, breastfeeding mothers can also wash their breasts with hot and cold water alternately in the shower, which can improve the tension of the breast skin and promote the blood circulation of the breast skin, thus effectively maintaining the elasticity of the breast skin. Even if individual mothers experience sagging after baby weaning, they can strengthen the elasticity of breast ligaments by means of gymnastic breast strengthening and breast expansion exercises. However, breast strengthening exercises are not a one-day effort and require long-term persistence to make the breasts look firmer, firmer and fuller. When doing exercise, you must do it according to your body’s recovery. You must pay attention to the intensity of exercise within 6 months after giving birth, don’t do too much intense exercise, start with light exercise and progress gradually. In addition, if you are breastfeeding while on a breast-building program, you should try to breastfeed before exercising, avoid overly strenuous arm exercises, and also drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration. If you are past breastfeeding, or if your breasts are showing signs of shrinkage, it is important to pay attention to every move you make in your daily life, and even supplement it with some physical exercise to help your breasts regain their elasticity and fitness. How to choose a bra? In our daily life, we find that many breastfeeding mothers do not wear bras from time to time for the convenience of breastfeeding or because the original bras are too small and cannot be used. In fact, this is not a good idea. During breastfeeding, the mammary glands have reached a high level of development. The mammary glands are filled with milk and the volume of the whole breast is significantly larger than usual, which inevitably increases the drop of the breast. At this time, if the breasts are not given proper support to make them stable, over time, it will lead to skin relaxation, so that the nipples and areolas gradually move down, possibly resulting in permanent bilateral breast sagging. At the same time, when there is a little strenuous activity, the breasts filled with milk and towering bulges will tremble up and down with their position and sway from side to side, thus pulling the mammary blood vessels, which is not conducive to breast blood circulation and normal secretion of milk. This will not only cause inconvenience to the mother’s life, but also lead to breast injury, breast pain, reduced milk production and milk stagnation, and even mastitis and other diseases. Of course, too small a breastfeeding bra is not good either. A too tight bra will compress the enlarged breasts, which will also affect the blood circulation and milk secretion in the breasts, or cause breast diseases. Therefore, breastfeeding mothers should choose the right type of bra according to their respective bust and breast size, and wear a bra that does not feel oppressive. In addition, the material used to make bras is preferably pure cotton, and the bras should be clean and hygienic. If there is milk overflowing from the nipple, so that the nipple is often in a wet state, coupled with friction with hard objects, it is easy to cause nipple damage. It is best to pad the breast pads in the bra and replace them in time to avoid damage to the nipples. Unwrap the bra when lying down to improve blood circulation. In summary, as long as a mother pays attention to self-care of her breasts during the breastfeeding period, she can have a pair of beautiful, firm breasts after the breastfeeding period.
