Lactation diet
It is important that postpartum and lactating mothers should have a light diet, and it is best not to eat meat, eggs and milk.
1, postpartum and lactation mothers need to nourish qi and blood, provided that the spleen and stomach can transport and be absorbed by the body. However, postpartum spleen and stomach function is weak, and eating greasy food is difficult to digest, which leads to the mother's inability to get the nutrition she needs from food, which not only affects her physical recovery, but also is not conducive to breastfeeding. * * * Milk is transformed from qi and blood, and the source is insufficient, and the milk will be insufficient.

3, to control the intake of fat, especially new mothers with gestational diabetes in the third trimester should be more careful to prevent it from turning into postpartum diabetes.

Matters needing attention in supplementing qi and blood diet during lactation
1, avoid cold and spicy food, and don't put pepper, anise, pepper and other seasonings in dishes and soups, which will not only cause constipation for new mothers, but also excite the baby.
2. If the newborn suffers from eczema, it is necessary to avoid meat, fish, beef and mutton, seaweed, kelp, mango, durian, longan, litchi, onion, ginger and garlic.
3, put less salt in the rice, because the baby's kidney function is weak, it will not be able to metabolize too much salt.
4. Even a hundred days before the puerperium, the new mother's body is weak and sensitive, so avoid some foods that will reduce milk: malt, hawthorn, leek, chocolate, cereal, ham, fried malt, malt cream and so on. Drinking more water will increase the secretion of milk. However, people's constitutions are different. Some people who eat the above foods may not necessarily lead to a decrease in milk. If they feel as if they have returned to milk, don't worry. Drink more water and let the children suck more, and the milk will increase again.

In fact, in addition to some therapeutic prescriptions, lactating women with anemia should pay special attention to some details in their daily diet.
First of all, if lactating women find anemia, they should not blindly use drugs, but should use blood-enriching methods under the guidance of doctors according to their own physique. Of course, medicine is toxic in three ways, so it is not particularly recommended that every woman use medicine to replenish blood.
Secondly, we should eat more iron-rich foods such as spinach, lean pork, pork liver and tofu in our daily diet.
In addition, we must pay special attention to a balanced diet, pay attention to the balanced intake of various foods, and remember to eat iron-containing foods in order to prevent anemia, while ignoring the balanced intake of other nutrients. For example, some people think that spinach is the richest in iron, so they can eat more spinach to prevent anemia. In fact, this is unscientific. Although spinach is rich in iron, it also contains oxalic acid. If eaten too much, it will cause the body to absorb calcium.
