Is there any effect of lactation?

If there is no milk, then if you don't induce milk production as soon as possible, it will cause the child to be stunted. If the child is not full without milk, it will also cause the child's body to become weak on a daily basis. If there is no milk for one day, it doesn't matter, but if there is no milk for the child for a long time, then it is definitely not okay. If there is no milk, you need to induce milk production as soon as possible. So are the methods of inducing milk production effective?

When there was a shortage of beds in obstetrics and gynecology departments in hospitals across the country and a shortage of resources in the maternal and child care market, a new professional title called "lactation consultant" that specifically helps new mothers solve breastfeeding problems began to emerge in the market and spread across the country.

They mainly help new mothers to produce breast milk through massage and other techniques. Many families with newborns who suffer from insufficient breast milk are looking forward to such services.

As to whether breast massage can help new mothers produce milk, there is no scientific theoretical support so far.

There is no research to prove whether new mothers without milk can produce milk through massage, but some women with poor milk supply can unclog their milk ducts through massage. Generally speaking, mothers should pay more attention to self-nipple cleaning and massage when bathing after 8 months of pregnancy.

Some experts believe that many reports about massage for milk production have exaggerated its effects. Breastfeeding is a mother's natural ability. It can only be said that massage and diet therapy can help mothers produce more milk. Even so, whether massage is really effective depends on the individual constitution of new mothers and it is not a panacea.

Improper massage may lead to mastitis

According to investigation, the lactation consultant market is still quite chaotic, with many lactation consultants taking up their posts without any experience. What is even more worrying is that if they massage the breasts of new mothers indiscriminately without professional training, the new mothers may suffer from breast pain at best, or even breast diseases such as mastitis at worst.

Whether the lactation induction is effective depends on what method you choose to induce lactation. When inducing lactation, try to improve your food as much as possible to help yourself induce lactation. During the lactation period, you must reasonably improve your diet, eat more soup, less greasy food, and more light food, but maintain nutrition, so that you can get the effect of lactation.
