Many mothers have been feeling confused because their children are breastfeeding. Actually, this is a normal phenomenon, moms don't need to worry too much. A child who keeps moving while breastfeeding may be happy or may have received a vaccine. So, why do children keep moving their hands while breastfeeding? Next, let me take you to learn about it together.
Why do children keep moving their hands while breastfeeding
When babies are breastfed or formula fed, they usually move around, especially if they struggle hard. Many new mothers will worry about this. The baby struggles severely for two main reasons:
1. Not enough to eat: Because the flow of breast milk is intermittent, when there is no milk, the baby becomes a bit anxious and struggles, which is actually a protest. Why is there no milk left? At this time, it is easy to inhale air, and the baby is prone to spitting milk. It is recommended to massage the breasts with your hands every time you need to breastfeed.
2. Hungry and anxious: If the baby hasn't eaten enough, they will struggle if they eat too quickly! Comfort the baby more, tell them stories, shift their attention, and wait until they have milk to continue eating!
What's going on with the baby being breastfed, pulled out, and eaten
Mom, please pay attention to this situation. It is mostly due to uncomfortable air in your stomach. You can first lift your baby up and gently pat your back to release the air, and then put it down to breastfeed. This will make you more honest, especially for babies who are young and easily inhale air during breastfeeding
After reading the previous text, did the moms breathe a sigh of relief. It can be seen that children are more active when their hands keep moving while they are breastfeeding. Being active is not a bad thing for children. Meanwhile, mothers should also take good care of their babies and not let them catch colds. Mothers should also remember to drink plenty of hot water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and not stay up late working or watching TV shows.
