Do I need to drain residual milk after weaning?

After weaning, women may experience chest pain and excessive milk secretion that cannot be discharged. If there is too much milk accumulation, it will easily cause poor blood circulation and cause breast fever, swelling and pain. This situation requires attention. So, is it necessary to discharge the residual milk after weaning?

1. Under normal circumstances, a small amount of milk will be secreted in daily life within one week after weaning. If the secretion is not large and there is no obvious breast pain, do not pump out the milk. However, if the secretion is large and there is obvious breast pain, you need to go to the hospital for examination in time to remove the residual milk and avoid mastitis. You can also use massage and hot compress to deal with it yourself.

2. Be sure to pay attention after weaning. If the baby cries and makes a fuss, do not let the baby suck milk again to avoid unsuccessful weaning. You can make some delicious and interesting baby food for the baby to divert the baby's attention. For example, you can make the baby food into the shape of animals, so that the baby will like to eat baby food more without having to worry about sucking breast milk all the time.

3. Some women may experience sagging breasts after weaning. At this time, they need to massage their breasts more to prevent sagging. They can choose suitable underwear, or do some breast enhancement exercises to reduce body fat percentage.

As the baby grows up day by day, the mother's milk can no longer meet the growth and development needs of the baby. And the baby's interest in other foods is getting deeper and deeper. At this time, Bao's mother should consider weaning. So, what is the best season to wean your child?

It is best to wean the baby when he is over 1 year old, and the best time to wean the baby is in spring and autumn. Due to the high temperature in summer, the digestion and absorption function of the baby's digestive tract is weakened. If the baby is weaned hastily, it may cause indigestion in the baby or even gastrointestinal diseases such as diarrhea. The weather in winter is cold, and if the baby is restless in sleep at night due to weaning, it is easy to catch a cold. Therefore, it is recommended that mothers choose to wean their children in spring and autumn.
