Breastfeeding is tricky.

# Infant # Introduction Mothers also need to learn. Many mothers choose to breastfeed their children. The following are some tips about breastfeeding, not to share. Welcome to read the reference!

1. Breastfeeding is tricky.

1. It is not recommended that Ma Bao hold the baby for breast-feeding during childbirth, let alone walk around with it. This will not only make you feel tired, but also form the habit that your baby needs to walk around to eat milk or walk around to sleep. Cry as soon as you put it down, and then carry it around. During confinement, you can take a sideways feeding posture. The baby and mother face each other, and both of them are sideways. Roll up a bag and put it behind the baby to prevent it from turning back. This will not only be too tired, but also contribute to Ma Bao's postpartum recovery.

2. If you are breastfeeding in the posture of holding the baby, you need to pay attention to: the baby and mother's chest are attached to the chest, the abdomen is attached to the abdomen, and the baby's chin is attached to the mother's chest. The baby's head and body are in a straight line. When breastfeeding, remember to hold your baby's head with your hands.

3. After breastfeeding, remember to help the baby stand up, gently burp, or hold it vertically for a while, because the stomach capacity of the newborn baby is relatively small and horizontal. If you eat too much, inhale air when sucking milk, or jump around all the time after eating, it will cause vomiting, so burping or holding vertically can effectively alleviate the situation of spitting milk.

2. Breast-feeding methods for newborns

1, Time: At present, breastfeeding is advocated immediately after delivery, and normal full-term newborns can breastfeed within half an hour of birth, which can not only prevent neonatal hypoglycemia but also promote breast milk secretion. The child's sucking can also stimulate the mother to secrete milk, which is a good start for breastfeeding. Early breastfeeding can reduce postpartum hemorrhage of mothers.

2. Method: In the correct breastfeeding method, the thumb and other four fingers of one hand should be placed above and below the chest respectively, and the chest should be straight and tapered upward. Mu Ying must be closely attached, and her head and shoulders should face the chest. When breastfeeding, the mother must relax, lean forward slightly, hold the baby's neck and back with her palm, and support the baby's head with four fingers. When breastfeeding, you should pick up the baby and feed it day and night. Only when the juice on the empty side is drained can you better stimulate the mammary gland to secrete again. Before washing * feeding, squeeze out a few drops, and then let the children eat.

3, the number of breastfeeding: newborns should start breastfeeding after birth, and implement irregular feeding as needed. Babies need frequent breastfeeding 4-8 days after birth to promote the rapid increase of breast milk. For sleepy or quiet babies, frequent breastfeeding should be carried out during the day to meet the nutrition needed for their growth and development.

4, feeding at night: postpartum fatigue, plus continuous feeding and changing diapers during the day, my mother is very sleepy at night. At night, when the child is crying, the mother will feel very upset. Sometimes, when the nipple is put into the child's mouth, the child will stop crying after eating the milk, and the mother may fall asleep again, which is very dangerous. Because the baby is very close to the mother when feeding, the sleeping mother doesn't know even if her chest presses the child's nostril, so tragedy may occur. In order to avoid this kind of thing, mothers can sit up while nursing at night.

3. Misunderstanding of breastfeeding.

1. If the colostrum is not clean, squeeze it out.

When the baby was born, the mother's milk was yellow and thick. Some people will feel unclean and squeeze out. I didn't know colostrum was good for babies. Breast milk is amazing. It can "automatically" adjust its composition according to the changes of baby's growth and development. Its yellow and thick color is not the "poor" milk, but the low immunity of newborns, so the mother's colostrum will contain more immune factors.

2. Feed regularly

Many new mothers are inexperienced and afraid that their children will not eat enough or eat too much. They feed them mechanically in strict accordance with the regulations in the parenting manual. In fact, the interval between breastfeeding is determined by the feelings of the baby and the mother. Whenever a baby cries because of hunger or a mother feels that her chest is full, she should breastfeed, instead of setting a rigid time, that is, feeding on demand.

Feeding on demand can not only supplement nutrition for the baby at any time, promote the baby's physical development, but also promote the continuous secretion of mother's milk. Therefore, it is convenient for mothers to breastfeed at any time after delivery.

3, night milk should wake up the baby to eat.

Some little guys sleep at night, and their mothers worry that their babies are malnourished, and then they will wake the sleeping babies. Therefore, it is not practical when they sleep again. What mothers need to be reminded here is that if the little guy is not hungry, he can sleep beautifully until dawn! If the mother is really worried about the baby's lack of nutrition, she can appropriately increase the number and frequency of feeding according to the baby's needs during the day.

4. The quality of the milk sucked by the breast pump is not good.

Compared with the baby sucking directly, the milk squeezed out is slightly inferior. Because something may get on the bottle during milking, there is a greater possibility of pollution. But even so, milk is far superior to other foods. Moreover, its living cells still exist, especially if they are not frozen, but at room temperature, or the milk squeezed out for immediate feeding to the baby is still very quality-guaranteed. If it is only refrigerated, there are still living cells, which will not be completely destroyed and nutrients will not be lost. Milk will be kept for a relatively long time, and it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to eight days.

5. Breastfeeding can lead to chest deformation.

What really causes breast deformation is pregnancy, not breastfeeding. The changes in the chest begin to change slowly during pregnancy and are influenced by progesterone. Whether a mother chooses breastfeeding or not, she should take good care of her breasts. If the mother doesn't want serious chest deformation, she can take some effective preventive measures, such as insisting on wearing supportive underwear, learning the correct posture of nursing the baby and massaging the chest properly.

6. Mothers should wash their breasts before each feeding.

It can be said that breastfeeding is the most convenient for both mother and baby! The feeding of milk powder needs special attention to cleanliness, because it can't guarantee the baby from infection. On the other hand, breast milk can protect babies from bacteria. Cleaning the chest before feeding every time will not only increase unnecessary trouble, but also wash off protective oil.

7. After the mother became ill, she couldn't breastfeed the baby any more.

When a mother is sick, she needs to breastfeed her baby, especially when she has a cold, which will not affect breastfeeding. If mother coughs and sneezes at home with a cold, these bacteria already exist at home. If these live antibody cells are not given to the baby, the baby will have no way to resist these diseases, and his body will be more susceptible to the mother's diseases. At this point, the mother can continue breastfeeding without worrying or wearing a mask. If the mother needs to take medicine, she can take drugs such as fenbid and ibuprofen, which will not affect her health and weaning.

4. The benefits of breastfeeding

1, breastfeeding can improve the baby's immune ability.

Breast milk helps the baby's immune system. Every day, the mother's living cells directly enter the child's body, enter his blood, and help his body fight various diseases.

2. Breastfeeding meets the psychological needs of children.

Children have a strong sucking demand from birth, and this demand will gradually decrease. If we force weaning, he won't get this demand, and he may have some psychological harm.

3. Breast-fed children are healthier.

Breast-fed babies are less likely to develop cancer, especially childhood cancer, and various lung diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease. Children will get a lot of help physically, psychologically and spiritually.

4. Breast-fed children have higher IQ.

Scientific research has proved that breast-fed children will have higher IQ.
