Many parents have probably squeezed nipples for their babies, because the older generation of family members said that if a baby's nipples are not squeezed, they cannot grow. So I listened to what they said and helped my baby girl squeeze her nipples. Although she cried during the process, the mother still had the heart to squeeze her baby. So, does a male newborn need to squeeze her nipples?
Do male newborns need to squeeze their nipples
1. Male newborns do not need to squeeze nipples, as this behavior does not effectively improve or adjust breast development. Instead, it can lead to nipple damage and infection.
2. It is necessary to completely eliminate the behavior of squeezing nipples in male newborns, and better ensure that the overall development of the breasts can proceed normally without external stimulation or damage through scientific and reasonable nursing measures.
3. It's best not to squeeze a boy's nipple, as if not protected properly, it can lead to infection, which is not worth the loss. Another thing is that if you want to squeeze, you need to go through professionals to avoid accidents.
Why should newborns never squeeze their nipples
1. Breast enlargement is a physiological phenomenon unique to the neonatal period. The cause of breast enlargement and lactation in newborns is due to the corresponding hormones given by the mother through the placenta before birth.
2. Squeezing the nipples of a newborn is a very dangerous practice. Squeezing the nipples of a newborn is an extremely wrong and scientifically unfounded habit. Not only will it not be beneficial for the development of baby nipples, but on the contrary, it may damage breast function or cause nipple distortion.
In the future, it is necessary to correct this bad habit of squeezing nipples for babies, because the baby's breasts will gradually develop on their own, and the nipples will also gradually protrude, but it only takes time and does not require any help from parents. The body of a newborn baby is very fragile, and the skin is also tender. If the baby is accidentally injured, it will not be good.
