Breastfeeding is now advocated, and the benefits of a casual search for breast milk on the Internet are even more overwhelming.
I once read an article to the effect that the components of breast milk have been detected more than two thousand kinds, but there are about two hundred kinds of ingredients that scientists have named, including some fungi (mostly probiotics, which help babies digest and absorb, and also help babies adapt to our bacterial world faster), and milk powder can currently add more than forty ingredients (this can be seen in the ingredient list), so breastfeeding babies have better resistance and gastrointestinal function.
Of course, I think anything is not absolute, the baby's feeding should still be based on the actual situation, insufficient breast milk, busy work, irritability, etc. unwilling or unable to breastfeed, you can feed milk powder or mixed feeding, in short, the mother's state is more important, only the mother will be good Baby will be good (including mood, diet, sleep and other aspects).
I have always insisted on breastfeeding, Daifuku is now six months old, I was born in the hospital for a day of milk powder, I returned to work at home after maternity leave, Daifuku at home with his grandmother, to eat two meals of rice noodles and two meals of breast milk every day, these breast milk is usually stored in the refrigerator, he eats very well.
Below I would like to share a little experience with breast milk preservation, hoping to help those in need.
First of all, my milk is relatively large, Daifuku can't finish eating, in addition to feeding Daifuku, I will use the breast pump to suck 1-2 times a day to store the milk storage bag in the refrigerator.
Regarding breast milk storage, I always wait for the breast milk in the breast pump to cool and then put it into the milk storage bag (after filling the milk, be sure to drain the air in the milk storage bag, to confirm that the milk storage bag has been completely sealed), the milk storage bag is marked with the milk amount and time, and put it in the refrigerator freezer (it is best to separate the box, do not mix with meat).
On the issue of storage time, some people say that it can only be stored for three months, and some people say that it can only be stored for six months, and our family is within six months to eat, of course, if the milk is particularly large, the baby can not eat it, then it can also be lost for more than three months.
On the issue of storing milk to thaw, I consulted the sister-in-law trainer and the doctor, not in a hurry to eat can be put in the refrigerator refrigerator cold room slowly thawed (this I usually put in the first night, the next morning when I get up to work pour into the bottle to start warm milk), you can also put in cold water or normal room temperature thaw and then put into the bottle, you can even take out from the refrigerator and put the milk bag together into the thawing equipment to get it directly into the bottle to drink (my baby's disinfection machine has this function, but I always feel that this is not good, So I generally choose the first method of thawing).
On the question of how long breast milk can be put after thawing, this is also said to be 4 hours, some say 6 hours, our family is 6 hours, in this process, Daifuku ate some of the rest will be put into the milk warmer to continue to heat, but more than six hours will be poured. Of course, because the temperature is not high during this time, if it gets hot after some days, I think it is safer to fall for 4 hours.
On the issue of breast milk storage, I am also groping while doing, maybe my approach is not completely right, but fortunately, The digestion and absorption function of Dafu is very good, and the breastfeeding is also very good, there is no constipation, no diarrhea, no spitting phenomenon, no flatulence, white and fat, every time I go to the physical examination, the indicators are very good (the doctor said that in addition to the height is high). Of course, the baby's health is not only by eating, he is the result of comprehensive efforts in all aspects, as a parent, you can only do your best to protect the baby when he is vulnerable, so that he can grow more healthily.
