During breastfeeding, mothers often notice that their breasts seem to be different in size. It may be due to the baby's preference for a single dose of milk during feeding, or it may be due to differences in their breasts that become more pronounced after breastfeeding. So how should babies correct their milk bias?
1. Correct the baby's feeding habits
When feeding the baby, the mother should pay attention to exchanging breastfeeding on both sides. Because some mothers have found that placing their babies aside may be more convenient and comfortable. So it's important to maintain this habit regularly, and over time, the baby's breasts will appear to have varying sizes of milk. It's recommended that the baby try multiple breastfeeding positions.
2. Increase the amount of milk from breasts with low milk output
When breastfeeding, the mother can first feed the baby on the smaller side, increase the frequency of milking or single milk output on the smaller side. If the baby refuses, the mother can then feed the baby on the other side. For the side that already has more milk, you can reduce milking.
3. Breastfeeding bra
Many mothers prefer not to wear bras at home during lactation, which is actually not right. During lactation, the weight of the breasts will increase, and not wearing a proper bra can easily cause sagging and affect the shape of the breasts.
In fact, mothers don't need to worry too much about the problem of babies feeding excessively. It is usually caused by breastfeeding habits, and you can pay more attention to adjusting it in the future.
