Breast milk can be increased by baby sucking on the nipple, massage, hot compresses and keeping a good mood.
1. Sucking on the nipple: for postpartum women, if the state is good, you can let the baby suck on the nipple within 30 minutes after delivery, because sucking on the nipple will stimulate the maternal hypothalamus to secrete prolactin, thereby stimulating milk secretion and increasing breast milk.
2. Massage: You can simulate baby’s sucking by pressing the nipple root point and danzhong point, which can effectively promote breast milk secretion and increase breast milk.
3. Hot compresses: You can use hot towels, hot water bags and other tools to apply hot compresses to the breasts, which can promote local blood circulation and keep the mammary ducts open, and then gently shake the breasts to promote milk secretion and increase breast milk.
4. Maintain a good mood: If you are often depressed, this bad mood may inhibit the secretion of prolactin and affect the secretion of breast milk. Therefore, you should keep a positive mood in your daily life and avoid being too depressed.
