What are the methods to promote milk

Ways to promote breast milk: a. Strengthen the baby’s sucking. Experiments have proven that prolactin in the mother’s blood will increase exponentially after the baby eats milk. This is because the baby sucking the nipple can promote the mother’s pituitary gland to secrete prolactin, thus increasing the secretion of milk. The second is to avoid taking medication. Some drugs and foods can affect the secretion of milk, such as anti-thyroid drugs and hawthorn, etc. If you are sick, it is best to take the drugs under the doctor’s orders. Third, supplemental nutrition. The various nutrients in breast milk come from the mother’s body. If the mother is in a long-term malnourished condition, it will naturally affect the normal secretion of breast milk. You can choose foods with high nutritional value during breastfeeding, such as milk, eggs, vegetables, fruits, etc. Also, prepare more soups, which can play a catalytic role in the secretion of milk. Fourth, maintain a good mood. After childbirth, the mother’s mood fluctuates under the effect of physiological and environmental factors, and she is often in a depressed state, which can restrict the secretion of breast milk. Medical experiments have shown that breast milk secretion will decrease sharply when the mother is depressed, so the mother should adjust her state of mind and stay optimistic and cheerful.
