What kind of galactagogue soup produces milk the fastest?
Many mothers are anxious about the lack of milk after giving birth to their babies. At this time, they need to relax. There are many ways to stimulate milk secretion. For example, many people like to drink prolactin soup, which is actually relatively simple. Some can be said to be a kind of home cooking. There are a lot of breast milk prolactin soups. You can use black-bone chicken soup, crucian carp soup or yam sparerib soup, or you can use four-legged chicken soup to see the effect. These are familiar to everyone.
Many women will choose to use traditional Chinese medicine to promote lactation when there is little milk, and the effect is particularly good. One of the most common methods is to promote lactation through massage. Now there is more professional breast-feeding training. Through massage, regulating qi and promoting blood circulation, relaxing meridians and activating collaterals will not bring any side effects to women.
Letting the baby suck the breast is the best way to breastfeed, which can effectively stimulate the breast to secrete milk when feeding the baby. If the baby eats very little, then you can suck out the thin milk with a breast pump first, and then let the baby eat more nutritious milk. If you choose to use prolactin soup, then you must pay attention to the fact that the soup must not be particularly sticky, because this soup has a high fat content, which will not only make you fat, but also reduce milk.
When to drink galactagogue soup?
Postpartum galactagogue decoction should not be too early or too late. It is better to drink prolactin soup three days after delivery. It is more appropriate to start lactation on the third day after delivery. The breast begins to secrete milk within two or three days after the baby is born. At this time, the milk is thick and slightly yellow, which is colostrum. About the fourth day after delivery, the breast began to secrete real milk. Therefore, it is more appropriate to start breastfeeding on the third day after delivery. It can not only prepare for the secretion of a large amount of milk after colostrum, but also enable the parturient to control the amount of soup and water at any time according to the lactation situation.
For healthy women, if there is more milk secretion after delivery, the time to drink soup can be appropriately postponed, and the amount of soup can be appropriately reduced to avoid discomfort and even acute mastitis caused by breast overfilling and siltation. If the postpartum situation is poor, you can drink soup earlier and eat more. When eating, it should be based on your own physical condition to prevent indigestion caused by excessive gastrointestinal burden.
