Why do you scrape your back during lactation?

Many new mothers have less milk after delivery, which is not enough for their babies to eat, so they can only breastfeed? Milk powder is given to the baby together, while drinking various soups to promote lactation, but the effect is minimal.

So today we are going to talk about breastfeeding.

The premise of breastfeeding must be to ensure smooth mammary glands. If the breast is blocked, the lactating mother will be sad, not to mention the pain, but also prone to mastitis.

Breast communication should start before pregnancy. If there is hyperplasia of mammary glands before pregnancy, you must first recuperate and then get pregnant. You should actively do breast massage after pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, and you can do breast hot compress massage every day. If postpartum is not good, please ask a prolactin for help ~

So how to breastfeed after the mammary gland is unobstructed?

Breastfeeding principle

Three elements of breastfeeding: baby, brain and breast.

Babies suck their breasts and send signals to the brain. The hormone that makes milk (prolactin) acts on the breast, prompting the breast to squeeze and secrete milk. When the milk supply exceeds the baby's demand, the milk will increase. At this time, the signal received by the brain is that the baby does not need so much milk, so the amount of milk will gradually decrease. When the milk supply is insufficient, the baby sucks and empties the breast constantly and frequently. The signal received by the brain is that the baby doesn't eat enough and needs to produce more milk, so the milk will increase rapidly. So the more milk you save, the less you eat. Whether supply exceeds demand or supply is less than demand, the final result is a balance between supply and demand, which means that the baby's food intake ultimately determines your output.

So the first step in breastfeeding is to let the baby suck more.

Otherwise, no amount of soup will turn into milk. Especially in the first few days after delivery, although it seems that there is not much milk, the mother's lactation reflex is very strong. At this time, more suction is beneficial to subsequent milk production.

At the same time, lactating mothers should ensure that they consume enough energy every day.

The formation of milk depends on the mother's nutrition. During normal lactation, 500 calories are needed every day to maintain balance.

Everyone knows to drink more soup. In fact, there is little nutrition in the soup, so you should eat the food in the soup together when you eat it.

On the one hand, the reason for drinking soup is that there is little nutrition in the soup but it is easy to absorb.

On the other hand, supplementing enough water is also beneficial to lactation.
