These years "pit" mom breastfeeding misunderstanding ~
▼
Breastfeeding myths are widely publicized
Breastfeeding deforms the chest
01
Actually the deformation of the breasts
From the moment you get pregnant!
Hormone levels are constant before pregnancy
Breasts remain in place
But after pregnancy
Hormone levels begin to change
This causes the breasts to start deforming!
Obstetrician and gynecologist
Proper breastfeeding after childbirth not only does not deform the breasts, but on the contrary, it can also effectively help new mothers recover after childbirth. It is more conducive to reducing the incidence of breast and ovarian cancer.
Babies are hungry quickly because they don't have enough to eat
02
The child cries, sleeps badly, is irritable
Others will remind you
Is it that the milk is not enough?
So you start to wonder if you don't have enough milk
In fact, newborn babies frequently drink milk because the stomach is only the size of a glass marble, the capacity is only a few milliliters, and it is enough to eat a little milk each time, so the interval between drinking milk is short and the number of times. As the age increases, the number of times your baby drinks milk decreases, but the amount of milk per drink increases, and the amount of milk per meal increases.
Obstetrician and gynecologist
Judge whether the milk is sufficient: one look at the spirit, two look at the diaper, and three look at the weight gain. The child has a sense of satisfaction after feeding, or happy to play or fall asleep soundly, change the wet diaper 6 to 8 times a day, defecate 2 to 5 times, hold it in your arms and feel that he grows longer and heavier day by day, which means that there is enough milk!
There are standards for children's growth and development
Too fat and too thin is not good
Breast milk after 6 months without nutrition?
03
● Breastfeeding should be initiated in the first hour of life;
● Breastfeeding should be adhered to until 6 months;
• During the period of 6-12 months, breast milk can meet half or more of the nutritional needs of the infant;
During the year when the infant is 1-2 years old, breast milk provides one-third of the nutrients.
Small milk in the breasts
04
Small breasts only indicate that there is less fat in the breasts
The mammary gland is an important base for milk production
It has nothing to do with the size of the breasts!
Obstetrician and gynecologist
Unless the new mother's breast has undergone some destructive surgery, received some special treatment or has some disease, she can basically have milk!
There is not enough milk to add some milk powder!
05
Low milk after childbirth is normal
But enough for your baby!
In the special stage of postpartum colostrum production, the small amount is the characteristic of colostrum. When the baby is born 7 days later, the baby's stomach becomes larger little by little, the appetite gradually increases, the mother's milk naturally transitions to mature milk, and the milk amount increases to meet the baby's growth needs!
According to the book, too dependent on the standard
06
It is often said that "one child is raised according to the book, and the second child is raised according to the pig"
It is inevitable that new mothers with babies will be inexperienced
Therefore, it is often necessary to consult the relevant parenting knowledge
Once you find out, the situation is a little different from what the book says
I was impatient
Go with the flow and find your own feeding rhythm between you and your baby! Don't compare with other people's children, don't compare with the dry and blunt data in the book, the book is written after the statistics of many children to get the average data and ordinary situation, and the rhythm that is exclusive to you and the child is the most perfect rhythm.
Breastfeeding cannot be fed during a cold
07
With a cold, you can continue to breastfeed
Just be careful to wash your hands before holding your baby
I also wear a mask
Obstetrician and gynecologist
In addition, cold medication must be taken under the guidance of a professional doctor or pharmacist ~ And mastitis, the doctor will prescribe drugs suitable for breastfeeding to nursing mothers, so that nursing mothers are not so uncomfortable.
Waking up at night is insufficient breast milk
08
In fact, babies have different ways of sleeping
The sleep cycle is shorter and the waking period is more frequent
And you need your mother's comfort to fall asleep
Night is the time when prolactin secretion is the most vigorous, that is to say, the frequency of breastfeeding at night is actually the key to milk production, do not let the mother breastfeed at night, and there is no milk during the day! Only if the night milk is guaranteed, the milk will be able to keep up during the day! Therefore, it is recommended that the baby rest in the same room as the mother at night
Breast milk is not nutritious during menstruation
09
Some new mothers may have menstruation during lactation
But this does not affect the quality of breast milk
You should continue to breastfeed
During menstruation
The amount of breast milk may be affected
So Bao Mom should drink more water
Let your baby suck more to restore milk levels!
Obstetrician and gynecologist
Correct practice: Continue breastfeeding, if the amount is reduced, increase the number of lactations and stimulate milk production.
Drink broth immediately after giving birth to your baby
10
A lot of experienced people
Drink fish soup for the new mother who has just given birth
Pig's trotter soup, chicken soup, bone soup
I want to get my new mom to milk quickly
BUT, this is wrong!
Because the mother's breast duct has not been unblocked after giving birth, suddenly a large amount of milk will cause the breast duct to block, and in severe cases, it can cause mastitis. It is recommended to drink some vegetarian soup the week before, such as millet porridge. After a week, wait for the breast duct to be unblocked before drinking some meat soup, it is recommended to skim off the oil on it to prevent fat (it is easier to skim off after the grease is cooled).
