Compared to manufactured milk powder, breast milk is more nutritious and beneficial for the development of others. Therefore, most women choose to feed themselves after giving birth. However, not all mothers will secrete breast milk or have less breast milk after giving birth. So what if there is less breast milk juice?
Firstly, you can eat some foods that help with lactation. For example, during confinement, family members often make soup for the mother. In fact, soup based foods can help with lactation, especially carp soup, pig trotter soup, and pork rib soup, which all have lactation effects. During the soup making process, some ingredients that can help with lactation can also be added, such as Tongcao.
Secondly, sometimes it may be due to the blockage of the mother's breasts, resulting in less milk. In this case, massage can be used to unblock the breasts. If you do not know how to do it or the technique is incorrect, you can seek professional lactation consultants, which are generally available in hospitals. After unblocking the breast, the condition of the milk will naturally adjust.
Thirdly, you can encourage the baby to suckle more. Baby sucking is also very effective in the secretion of breast milk, so if there is a shortage of breast milk, you can let the baby suck on the nipple more, which can have a better effect on breastfeeding.
