After giving birth, the mothers may have thought that it would be easier, but they did not know that it was actually the beginning of the "test", as a novice mother, whether it is during the confinement period or after the confinement, they may experience milk accumulation.
For the baby, if the mother's breast milk is sufficient, it is natural that breastfeeding is more beneficial to the baby's growth. However, in the process of breastfeeding, there is often a problem of milk accumulation, and if it is not dealt with in time, the problem may become more and more difficult.
Milk stasis evolves into mastitis
If the milk accumulation patient does not remove the milk accumulated in the breast in time and effectively, it may lead to acute mastitis, symptoms such as local redness, fever, and high skin temperature of the breast, and some patients may also have symptoms of infection and poisoning such as fatigue, mental atrophy, poor sleep quality, and joint pain. If the patient has the above symptoms or the local pain in the breast gradually worsens, the fever symptoms become more and more obvious, indicating that the patient may have acute mastitis and needs to go to the hospital in time for treatment by a professional doctor.
There are cases of postpartum milk stasis, which is actually very common. Long before the problem occurred, there were many omens, and many novice moms missed the best processing time because they did not grasp these omen signals, which made the problem more and more serious. If you can find the problem early and strive to solve the problem in the early stage, then you don't have to go through pain in the follow-up.
For milk stasis, the initial omen is generally that the amount of breast milk will slowly become less, but this omen many mothers can not grasp the signal in time, so this is why many mothers will become more serious after the symptoms of milk stasis.
If this signal is not found in time, then the mother will feel the pain in the later stage, which is mainly because the milk block is seriously stasis, resulting in the mother's swelling and pain, which is actually necessary to actively seek a solution, otherwise if the problem is further worsened, then it is possible to evolve into mastitis, and once mastitis occurs, then the pain will become more intense, and even threaten the postpartum recovery of the mother, which is also extremely unfavorable for the newborn in terms of breastfeeding.
How can I prevent milk stasis during breastfeeding?
First of all, the baby's sucking is the best way to get through the milk, usually, on the day of delivery, after the birth of the child, it is necessary to actively open the milk within half an hour, so that the breast canal can become unobstructed. During the entire lactation period, the mothers should also suck the baby regularly, and some mothers feel that the baby's sucking is more painful, so it may reduce the number of breastfeeding, in fact, this will increase the risk of milk stasis.
The main response methods are as follows:
1. Breastfeeding should be given as soon as possible after childbirth.
2. Pay attention to cleaning the nipple and remove the scale at the mouth of the breast duct. Prevents and actively treats nipple rupture. Keep your breasts clean and prevent bacterial infections.
3. Pregnant women should develop the habit of self-massage of breasts. Method: Hold the breast with one head and four fingers together with the other hand, walk along the milk tube, gently massage and comb the nipple head, and gently lift the nipple with your hand several times to expand the output tube of the nipple head. If the breasts feel swollen and painful, or if there is a lump on the breast, the technique can be heavier. Each time is 10 to 15 minutes.
4. If the infant's sucking ability is insufficient or the infant's food intake is small and the milk secretion is large, the breast pump should be used to exhaust the milk.
5. Prolactin should be moderate. Avoid eating a large amount of high-fat, high-nutrient foods in the short term, and eat less hot foods to avoid thick milk accumulation.
6. Keep your mood comfortable and ensure adequate sleep.
