Let’s talk about the baby and mother that thing, we will find that during the breastfeeding period some mothers have sufficient milk, but some mothers are not enough for the baby at the very beginning, did not feed for a long time, milk who will also be less and less, in fact, under normal circumstances, there will be a large amount of prolactin in the body after delivery to prompt the mother’s breasts to produce milk, the baby’s ration is certainly enough, if there is a lack of milk production, it is likely that other external causes, such as some feeding habits, improper diet, bad emotions, poor sleep, etc..
When Xiao Yue was first born, the mother’s milk was still relatively sufficient, and the baby would sleep quietly after eating the milk, which was very worrying. However, due to some family reasons, the mother appears to be depressed and tearful, and her mood becomes very bored, resulting in a gradual lack of milk, while the baby’s meals increase greatly, often not getting enough to eat, and also becoming sleepless.
Yes, most of them are due to these reasons!
- Large emotional changes
Some baby mothers, after giving birth to a child, due to reasons such as themselves and their families, lead to large emotional fluctuations, sometimes falling into a state of inexplicable anxiety and tension, and in severe cases even depression. All these situations can affect the normal secretion of milk and lead to a reduction in milk.
- Not getting proper rest, bad mood!
Some mothers need to take care of their babies or worry about family matters during the “menstruation” period, resulting in insufficient rest time, poor mental state and lack of physical recovery, which can also lead to insufficient milk.
- Not emptying the breast in time
Many mothers have the habit of saving milk, and after each feeding of the baby, they will leave the extra milk in their breasts for the baby to eat next time. This will only make the residual milk block the mammary glands and affect the secretion of new milk, and the milk will become less and less. And in serious cases, it can also lead to mastitis, threatening the mother’s health. The more milk is expressed, the more milk there is, so mothers should not be afraid of having less milk, and must drain the excess milk after each feeding of the baby. The mother can use a breast pump to empty it. The breast pump emulates the baby’s sucking process, and as long as you find the right suction power for you, it will help the mother to empty her breasts better, thus taking care of her breast health.
We all know that breastfeeding is good for the baby, how should we be able to have enough milk?
- Maintain a good mood
Don’t worry too much, no matter what happens to keep a normal mind; do it for your own benefit to your baby! Do not often lose your temper or have conflicts with your family, resulting in good moods and bad moods, too many ups and downs. This is not conducive to the formation of breast milk, but also affect the feeding of the baby.
- Keep enough sleep
Now most people are accustomed to the night life, these habits once developed, as well as many household chores, including taking care of the baby many baby mothers are personally on the line. Many moms, including during the month, also sleep very late, into the breastfeeding period of the mom, in addition to feeding the baby, but also pay attention to more rest, not overworked. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who have been in the business for a long time.
- nutritional supplements
After giving birth, some mothers are worried about the lack of milk secretion, so they rush to take a lot of supplements and drink all kinds of highly nutritious soups, although they can indeed achieve the role of lactation for a short time, but it is also very easy to have milk problems. Once the milk rises, it will lead to blockage of the milk ducts, and the milk will become less and less in the future. Therefore, mothers should not blindly take supplements after giving birth.
