I haven't seen my father for more than two years, and the last thing I can forget is his back.

Feeding their children is the wish and hope of all mothers, so in order to achieve full breastfeeding as soon as possible, mothers who used to love beauty have also insisted on drinking three bowls of milk soup in one day during the month. Since there is food that can milk milk, there will naturally be some foods that will affect lactation or even cause milk return. New mothers are very nervous about this, let's take a look at the truth about "returning to milk".
First, what is milk return?
The so-called "milk return" refers to the fact that the breast no longer produces milk after weaning the baby. There are two ways to return milk:
1. Natural milk return method:
Suitable for mothers who have been breastfeeding for more than 10 months, weaning their baby normally or have less milk. By gradually reducing the number of feedings, shortening the time of feeding, and using methods such as diet, we can help reduce or even no longer produce milk.
2. Artificial milk return method:
Suitable for mothers who have been breastfeeding for less than 10 months and are forced to wean their baby due to illness or other reasons. In addition, when weaning normally, if there is too much milk and the effect of natural milk return is not good, the artificial milk return method can also be used.
How exactly is milk produced?
Principle of breast milk secretion: Baby sucking stimulates nerve sensors on the nipple, these sensors transmit information to the pituitary gland in the mother's brain to secrete prolactin and oxytocin into the mother's blood, prompting the mammary glands and their tissues to secrete and release milk. From the moment the baby is born and detached from the placenta, the body has also begun to prepare to form a normal lactation mechanism, and generally speaking, mothers with a normal pituitary gland will not encounter any problems without milk.
In order to avoid unnecessary "accidents" and "troubles" to the greatest extent, here is a brief list of some foods that may cause milk back:
What do you eat to get back to your milk?
Milk and diet have a lot to do with it, if you eat some food back to milk, you can make milk back to milk more effective, but the specific effect varies from person to person:
1. Malt:
Malt is commonly used in Chinese medicine to return milk, but its use and dosage are different. Some people are used for life, and some people are fried. Some people say raw malt back to milk, fried malt under the milk.
2. Peppercorns:
12 grams of peppercorns, add 500 ml of water, cook until 250 ml is left, add 30 grams of brown sugar, generally take once to relieve the milk, twice can return to milk.
3. Raw grain buds:
Take with 40 grams of raw grain buds in decoction water, and the effect can generally be seen in two days.
Precautions when returning milk
1. Gradually reduce the number of feedings before returning to milk, shorten the time of each feeding, but do not stop feeding immediately.
2. In terms of diet, avoid foods that promote milk secretion, such as peanuts, pig's trotters, crucian carp, soups, etc., and eat less protein-rich foods.
3. The most taboo thing to do when returning milk is to breastfeed while breastfeeding, so that it cannot be smoothly returned to milk.
4. When returning to breast milk, keep your mood comfortable.
5. If you find that there are hard lumps in the breasts, you should rub them open in time to prevent mastitis, and it is best to find the Help of the Prolactinator or Doctor of the Imperial Congregation.
6, the general time to return to milk between 7 days and half a month, during which mothers should pay attention to observation, if the breast continues to swell or other abnormalities, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, after a clear diagnosis under the guidance of a doctor for treatment.
It is recommended to choose a season when the weather is not too hot, such as spring or autumn for weaning. It can reduce the baby's indigestion due to gastrointestinal insufficiency and hot weather, and can also avoid the pain of mother's milk swelling when it is hot.
