Insufficient postpartum milk, please ask a prolactinist to solve it? Teach you 4 methods that you can do at home
For new mothers who choose to breastfeed, there is nothing worse than not having enough milk. It is very distressing to see the child crying for food. When many novice mothers encounter the problem of insufficient milk, they rush to ask a prolactinist to come back to promote lactation. In fact, the prolactinist is expensive, and some do not have professional skills, and they will cause problems if they are not careful. The following lactation methods can be used at home by yourself to solve the problem of insufficient milk.
How to promote lactation when the milk supply is insufficient after delivery?
- Keep kissing
Some novice mothers use a breast pump to suck out milk, and then use a bottle to feed their babies. If they want to promote lactation, they must change this feeding method and try to breastfeed by themselves. Don't be afraid that the child will bite the nipple, and do a good job in breast care, and this kind of problem can be easily solved. If you want to promote lactation and want more milk, you have to insist on breastfeeding. Every sucking of the child will stimulate the mammary glands and stimulate the secretion of milk. If you want to have the effect of promoting lactation, it is best to breastfeed 8 to 12 times a day, so that it will be effective.
- Focus on nutrition
If you want to make more milk, you must take in more protein in your food, especially you need to eat more food rich in high-quality protein. You can eat more chicken, milk, eggs and other foods. Don't drink too much greasy soup. The fat content in blood sugar is the highest. Apart from making people gain weight, the effect of promoting lactation is very limited. Pay attention to balanced nutrition in terms of diet, and don't be picky or partial, which is an important condition to ensure the quality and quantity of milk.
- Massage a lot
Massage can stimulate the breasts and make the breasts secrete more milk, but the prerequisite is the correct massage. Pressing blindly by yourself will not be effective. On the contrary, it will affect the health of the breast and increase the chance of women getting mastitis. You can find a professional to massage and promote lactation, but you must go to a formal institution to ask for it, and don't be greedy for cheap and just call someone to do it. You can learn while massaging, and you can massage in time at home on weekdays, saving a lot of time and energy.
- Improve sleep quality
The reason why some novice mothers do not have enough milk is because they do not have good sleep quality, do not have enough sleep time, and are too tired. If you want to make your milk secrete better, you need to start with sleep. Because the child needs to be breastfed at night, the mother should also sleep with the child during the day, so as to ensure that her sleep time is sufficient.
If you want to make milk more abundant and promote lactation correctly, you can start with the above methods. If you really don’t know how to do it, you can go to a professional to help you promote lactation. The premise is to find a reliable person with real skills.
