How to make less and less milk one month after delivery

Increasingly less milk one month after delivery may be related to blocked mammary glands, insufficient milk biochemistry or incorrect feeding practices. Breastfeeding women can improve by general treatment such as changing the diet and ensuring sleep. If the general treatment is not effective, you may need to follow medical advice to use medication. 1. General treatment: 1. Diet: It is recommended to drink more high nutritious liquid food such as wolfberry soup, pork ribs soup and fish soup, which can promote milk biochemistry. However, it is recommended that breastfeeding women eat less greasy food, which can easily lead to milk clumping and blockage; 2. Ensure sleep: breastfeeding women need to feed their children irregularly, which may lead to lack of sleep, which will then lead to less and less milk, so pay attention to rest and try to ensure sufficient sleep; 3. If you are in a depressed state, your milk will be reduced. Family members should be more present and give encouragement and support to breastfeeding women; 4. Feeding skills: Breastfeeding women should have contact with their children as soon as possible after giving birth, which can stimulate milk secretion. Breastfeeding is on-demand breastfeeding, and children with needs should be fed and sucked diligently, which can stimulate milk secretion. The frequency and duration of breastfeeding can be increased, and each feeding is recommended to last more than half an hour, and the child should be allowed to suck one breast before sucking the other. In addition, one month after giving birth is not recommended to take a mixture of daytime feeding and nighttime feeding of milk powder or milk, which may make the milk less and less, because the night is the peak of secretion, if you do not feed diligently at night, it is easy to lead to the accumulation of milk, which may lead to blockage of the glandular ducts and easy to cause mastitis; 5. Physical therapy: If the milk is getting less and less in the month after giving birth due to blockage, you can have your breasts massaged by a professional. You can gently lift the nipples and massage the areola to stimulate the mammary glands to unblock them. If there is still a lot of milk after the child is full, you can use a breast pump to suck out the milk, which can effectively avoid the accumulation of milk. In daily life, you can use hot towels to warm up your breasts to speed up local blood circulation, which is conducive to the smooth discharge of milk. Medication: If the above methods do not work, you can apply milk draining drugs such as metoclopramide and vitamin E under the guidance of a doctor if necessary, or you can apply Chinese herbs such as Wang Bu Liu Xing, Tong Cao and Lu Lu Tong as prescribed by your doctor.
