Can I still stimulate milk production after my milk has stopped flowing?

For a newborn baby, new parents want to give him the best of everything. For the baby, the best thing besides the care of the parents is breast milk. Breast milk is the best food for the baby and nothing else can compare. However, due to various reasons, some babies either have insufficient milk or their milk is dried up. So, how can we solve this problem? Now let’s talk about whether it is possible to stimulate lactation after weaning has stopped.

If the milk has completely gone back, it will not come back. If it has not gone back but is just not much, then you need to let your baby suck more. Let him eat your milk first, feed your baby on time, and also insist on breastfeeding. Slowly, under the stimulation of the baby's constant sucking, the milk will slowly disappear.

(1) Strengthen the baby's sucking. Experiments have shown that after the baby feeds, the prolactin in the mother's blood will increase exponentially. This is because when the baby sucks the nipple, it stimulates the mother's pituitary gland to secrete prolactin, thereby increasing milk secretion.

(2) Avoid taking medication. During the breastfeeding period, you must remind your wife not to take any medicine randomly. Some medicines and foods can affect the secretion of breast milk, such as antithyroid drugs, hawthorn, etc. If your wife is sick, it is best to take medicine under the doctor's orders.

(3) Supplement nutrition. All the nutrients in breast milk come from the mother's body. If the mother is in a state of malnutrition for a long time, it will naturally affect the normal milk secretion. You must fulfill your role as chef well and choose foods with high nutritional value for your wife, such as milk, eggs, vegetables, fruits, etc. At the same time, prepare more soup, which can catalyze the secretion of your wife's milk.

(4) Maintain the nurse’s good mood. After giving birth, mothers will experience greater mood swings due to physiological and environmental factors, and often become depressed, which will restrict the secretion of breast milk. Medical experiments have shown that when a mother is depressed, her milk secretion will decrease sharply. Therefore, you have an obligation to create a good living environment for your wife and pay attention to her mental health at all times.

(5)Diet therapy. On the basis of taking the above measures, combining them with lactation-promoting foods, the effect will be more obvious. Foods such as pig's trotters and peanuts can promote the secretion of milk.

The above is about whether it is possible to stimulate lactation after weaning has stopped? I have made a detailed introduction, and I believe it will be very helpful for new mothers who have insufficient milk or milk weaning. In fact, when you find that your milk supply has decreased, apart from excluding the cause of illness, you must step up your efforts to induce milk production. The longer the time goes, the more difficult it will be to induce milk production. So for the sake of your babies' food, mothers, cheer up.
