4, the correct way of breastfeeding
(A) actively carry out breast maintenance before pregnancy
From the fifth month of pregnancy, often scrub the nipple and areola with soap and water, and apply a layer of oil on the cleaned nipple and areola to make the breast skin gradually tough; Cover the breast with a hot towel and gently press it, and massage around the breast with your fingertips; Wear a loose bra to prevent breast dysplasia caused by tightness, and the cilia on the bra block the mammary duct; Apply grease to the nipple after each bath, gently touch the nipple with your thumb and forefinger, and seek effective methods from the doctor to correct the nipple invagination or flattening as soon as possible.
(2) Feed the baby as soon as possible after delivery.
According to the new regulations of the World Health Organization and UNICEF, babies should be weaned as soon as possible 30 minutes after delivery, and newborns should be in the same bed with their mothers. According to the principle of irregular quantitative breastfeeding, babies should be breastfed as needed to get the most precious colostrum. Although mommy may be physically and mentally exhausted and her breasts don't feel bloated, she must let her baby suck her breasts as soon as possible so as not to lose the best opportunity.
(3) Feed your baby at any time.
First of all, there is no need to rigidly stipulate the number, interval and feeding amount of breastfeeding. Instead, as long as the baby cries or feels that it is time to feed, it is necessary to pick up breast milk and eat as much as the baby can. This will increase the secretion of prolactin in mommy, thus increasing the amount of lactation, and can also prevent mommy from suffering from mastitis and avoid affecting the baby's breastfeeding. If mommy is weak or the wound hurts, she can use the lateral position to feed her baby, but it is not advisable to lie down and feed her baby often in the future, otherwise it will affect the baby's mandibular development and cause deformity in the future.
(D) Master the correct nursing skills
During feeding, mommy should relax and be comfortable, and the baby should be quiet. Mother sits on a low stool or beside the bed. If she is in a high position, she can put one foot on the pedal, or lean against the chair, put a pillow on her leg and pick up the baby. Put the baby on his lap and let his head rest on his mother's arm. Mommy holds his back and little ass with her arms, so that her face and small breasts are close to Mommy and her chin is close to her breasts. Mommy holds up the breast with the palm of her hand, first stimulates the skin around the baby's mouth with the nipple, and when the baby opens his mouth, she takes the opportunity to send the nipple and areola into the baby's mouth together; It is very important for the baby to fully contain most nipples and areola. Otherwise, it is impossible to get milk just by holding the nipple and sucking it. The baby will try his best to get milk by sucking the nipple. Mommy will feel terrible pain, and the nipple is easily sucked by the baby. If mastitis is caused, it will make it difficult for breastfeeding to go on smoothly. Mommy presses her breast with her fingers while feeding, so that the baby can suck without blocking his small nose.
(E) Scientific and rational intake of rich nutrition
In order to have exuberant milk secretion and excellent nutrition, mommy's demand for calories and nutrition has also increased relatively, so it is more appropriate to eat more meals every day, 4 ~ 5 meals; Pay special attention to drink more soups that can promote lactation, such as stewed pork ribs soup, stewed chicken soup, stewed pig's feet, tofu soup and vegetable soup. It is best to drink water or other drinks between meals. If there is little or no milk, don't give up easily. Ask your doctor to recommend some special breast-feeding meals or medicated diets. However, the more you eat, the better, because you spend more time in bed and have less activities during confinement, but you mainly eat high-calorie or fatty foods. If you eat too much, it will not increase the milk quantity, but will reduce the milk quantity because of gastrointestinal discomfort.
