Many netizens said that they did not know that Zhao Wenqi was married, and even the child's father had become a fan, and in the face of fans' questions, Zhao Wenqi did not reply.
Speaking of Zhao Wenqi, these two years are also quite low-key, there are no new works, and rarely participate in variety shows, many people see this name, may have to ask a sentence "Who?" ”
But if you talk about her classic role "Love Apartment" Qin Yumo, I think everyone is very familiar with it.
In addition to posting the baby's growth, Zhao Wenqi also accidentally exposed the photos of the delivery room, and the baby and her four eyes were opposite, and the picture was very warm.
But some sharp-eyed netizens found that a large bruise appeared on the skin on Zhao Wenqi's chest, what was going on?
Mothers who have had similar experiences give answers:
This is a milk massage pressed out!
Great maternal love is not just talk, female stars are willing to bear physical pain for the good of their children.

Zhang Ziyi also posted on Weibo after giving birth, lamenting the pain caused by physiological milk rises, and also shared the breast massage methods taught by breastfeeding teachers.

However, under this Weibo, many netizens believe that the advice given by Zhang Ziyi's breast milk instructor is unreliable, and there are too many slot points:
Seeing these replies, the onlookers were also confused, who was right?
How to open the milk, how to avoid violent opening of the milk?
What about physiological milking?
1
Grasp the golden period of open milk
Open milk means that the mother breastfeeds the baby as soon as possible after childbirth, and through the baby's effective multiple sucking, the mother's body's lactation mechanism is effectively activated.
A good start is half the battle, and the better the breastfeeding, the sooner the mother achieves comfortable breastfeeding.
Many mothers think that a series of massages are required after childbirth to have milk.
In fact, the mother has already begun to produce milk at 16-20 weeks of pregnancy, which we call lactation stage I.
The second stage of lactation generally appears 36 hours after the mother's childbirth, which is manifested by an explosion in lactation, so large that the amount is even "stone milk".
Between the first and second stages of lactation, the most critical is the first 1 hour after the mother gives birth, which is the golden period of opening milk.
Take advantage of this time, let the baby frequent skin contact and repeated breastfeeding, the mother's body will secrete a large amount of oxytocin, stimulate the production of milk.
At the same time, both mother and baby can be well run-in, which is conducive to the formation of the baby's correct latch position.
On the contrary, babies who miss the golden period of opening milk may have problems such as nipple confusion and poor latching, resulting in insufficient milk secretion, and the mother will have to endure pain such as milk blockage and mastitis in the later stage.

The best nurse is the baby
You really don't need to rub your breasts!
If you want to open the milk correctly, you must remember this recipe:
Early contact, early sucking, early opening of milk.
In the sharing of many female celebrities, we can all see that they have done "three mornings" very well:
The best nurse to breastfeed is the baby, and opening milk itself is a natural process, the milk will naturally go from less to more, and there is no need for artificial massage.
Many mothers worry that if they have just given birth and have so little milk, will their babies starve?
● In fact, the stomach capacity of newborns on the 1st to 2nd day of birth is only the size of peas, and the capacity is only 7-13 ml.
● The stomach capacity of 3-6 days is only the size of an ordinary grape, with a capacity of about 30-60 ml.
So when a newborn is born, it is enough to eat only a little bit for each feeding.
Dr. Ma Hongmin, director of the Breast Surgery Department of Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center, told us:
The amount of milk secreted by the mother is compatible with the baby's stomach capacity.
If the mother is really worried, you can also judge whether the baby is full or not by the number and color of the baby's bowel movements.

What's going on with physiological milking?
Physiological milk increases generally occur around the 2-3rd day after the mother's childbirth.
New mothers will feel their breasts swollen, hot, heavy, sometimes hard like stones, and painful at the touch.
In fact, this is because of the opening of the second stage of lactation, the mother's demand for lactation suddenly increased, and in order to produce more milk, lymph and blood would gather near the breast.
Coupled with the sudden increase in milk, the above components of the new mother's breast aggregation, but can not be effectively removed, there is a breast swelling, and even stone milk situation.
As long as the baby is not confused with the nipple and can effectively feed, the mother will breastfeed on demand, and the physiological milk will subside on its own within a few days.
There is also no need to artificially knead the "milk" when there is a physiological milk rise, after all, we do not have a clairvoyant eye and cannot see the direction of the breast duct.
The wrong massage will not only not help to relieve the milk rise, but also aggravate the edema of the breast tissue, and even cause serious problems such as breast abscesses.
In addition to massage, the following practices are also not advisable

The correct posture for handling physiological milk rises
1. Apply cold compresses to the breasts
Frozen towels, rolled cabbage leaves, sliced potatoes, and even antipyretic patches can alleviate mom's discomfort and help eliminate edema.
In Zhang Ziyi's sharing, we saw that she said "10 minutes of hot compresses before feeding", which was criticized by netizens because in the case of breasts that have been completely swollen and hardened, long-term hot compresses may aggravate the problem.
Usually we recommend a short warm compress of 2-3 minutes before breastfeeding, which is to stimulate the mother to produce a "milk array" in order to better remove the milk.
2. Effectively remove milk
Again, as the old saying goes, babies are the best lactators for moms!
Allowing your baby to suck effectively is the most direct and optimal way to address all the milk swells.
3. Soften the areola
When physiological milk is raised, the areola is usually edema and tight. The breasts are hard, the areola is swollen, and the baby's small mouth can't suck, what to do?
Mom can press repeatedly according to the following figure,
Softens the areola so that your baby can latch on correctly
Breastfeeding is a problem that countless new mothers must face.
The difficulty of postpartum feeding, coupled with the gossip of relatives and friends, will make new mothers fall into deep self-doubt, feel that they are useless, even their babies can not be fed, and even will produce serious postpartum depression.
In fact, as an animal in nature, the evolutionary process of human beings is compatible with nature, how have we ever heard of monkeys with insufficient milk?
Breastfeeding is not complicated, nor should it be a source of stress for mothers, family members know a little more about scientific feeding, you can give breastfeeding mothers a little more tolerance and support.
