Nowadays, people are paying more attention to the issue of breastfeeding. No matter how rapidly technology develops, the nutritional value of breast milk cannot be replaced. With the opening of the second child policy, many mothers have entered a new role - second child mothers. Along with this, there are many questions about the second child, such as whether the second child will breastfeed quickly?
There is no research showing that the secretion of breast milk is related to the number of fetuses, which means that regardless of whether it is a second or first child, the time for milk secretion after childbirth should be similar, with vaginal delivery taking about 1-2 days and cesarean section taking about 3-4 days longer. So postpartum mothers still need to pay attention to several points when breastfeeding to prevent milk loss or insufficient feeding for the baby.
1. Supplementing nutrition should be done gradually, without immediately supplementing oily foods. A light diet should be maintained, with less oil and salt throughout the week to better promote milk secretion.
2. If you want to hire a professional lactation consultant for massage, it may be due to blocked breasts, causing the second child mother to have the illusion that she has less breast milk.
3. More importantly, let the baby suckle. If the body is able to do so after giving birth, let the baby suckle earlier. Even if there is no milk, start suckling in time to promote earlier milk secretion.
4. Mothers should relax and pay more attention to things that make them happy, maintain a relaxed mood every day, avoid excessive pressure, and not always overthink. The process of breastfeeding for second born mothers is actually the same as that for first born mothers, so there is no need to worry at all.
