The difference between weaning and weaning

After giving birth, women will go through two stages when breastfeeding: the weaning period and the weaning period. If a woman is in this stage, she must pay attention to her diet, because there are some foods that cannot be eaten during the weaning period, and some foods that cannot be eaten during the weaning period. There are many reasons for women's milk withdrawal, which may be related to their mood. When women are in the milk withdrawal period, they can drink some crucian carp soup, which is conducive to milk production.

The weaning period refers to the period when breast milk secretion is too little, and timely adjustments are needed at this time. When a mother stops producing milk during the breastfeeding period, it is due to a variety of factors, such as bad mood, too much stress in life, and postpartum depression, which can all cause too little milk secretion. This situation is relatively common and requires more adjustments. Dietary adjustments: Eat more eggs, fish, meat, chicken and the like, and also include vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Adjustments in life: Don’t do too much or too tiring work, and pay attention to recuperation and rest, which can improve this situation. Adjust your mood: Keep a happy mood and be open-minded about unhappy things, so that you can secrete milk better.

When mothers are weaning, they should avoid foods that promote milk secretion, such as peanuts, pig's trotters, crucian carp, soybeans, rice wine, black chicken soup, squid, carp, wild rice stem, and loofah. In addition, reducing water intake and eating less protein-rich foods can reduce milk secretion.

Food weaning method:

1. Scallion and white wine: When taking a bath at night, boil a pot of water and put some scallion and white wine in it. Then use a towel dipped in scallion and white wine to warm both breasts and squeeze out all the milk. Do this once a day for 3 days.

2. Hawthorn malt drink: 10g malt; 3g hawthorn; 15g brown sugar. First, slice the hawthorn and fry the malt separately until they are charred. Then take the fried malt and hawthorn, add a bowl of water and boil them for 15 minutes to extract the juice. Add brown sugar to season. It can relieve breast pain and milk accumulation.

Things to note when weaning:

1. If your breasts are swollen and uncomfortable, you can squeeze out the milk, but don't squeeze it out completely, otherwise it will promote milk secretion and have the opposite effect.

2. During the weaning period, you should pay attention to reducing stimulation to the breasts and nipples. The secretion of prolactin will decrease accordingly, and the secretion of milk will gradually decrease. Never let your baby suck your breast milk or touch it, and avoid using hot water to rinse your breasts when taking a shower.

3. You can use ice packs to cool your breasts to relieve the feeling of swelling.

4. If you find a lump in your breast, rub it with your hands in time to prevent mastitis.

5. When choosing diet during weaning, you should avoid foods that promote milk secretion, such as peanuts, pig's trotters, crucian carp, soups, etc., and eat less protein-rich foods, which can reduce milk secretion. During the weaning period, you should also pay attention to reducing the water intake in your diet.

6. You must be patient during the weaning period. No matter how much the baby cries or makes a fuss, do not let the baby suck intermittently. Do not rub chili peppers or other irritating things on the nipples. If you squeeze milk due to swelling and pain, this will inevitably prolong the weaning time.

7. Try to avoid using hormone drugs or milk-suppressing injections, as they can easily cause breast atrophy or breast secretion problems.
