How to do lactation consultant technique

Giving birth to a baby is a very happy thing for mothers, but many mothers will not have enough milk after giving birth. Mothers are very anxious because insufficient milk will affect the baby's health. So many mothers will think about postpartum lactation. However, although I want to, I still don’t understand it thoroughly. If some mothers need to induce lactation due to insufficient milk, they must understand it clearly in advance and use the correct method and not compromise. If any consequences occur, it will be too late to regret. Lactation induction is a very serious matter. I hope mothers will take action after having sufficient understanding of it. Here are some ways to stimulate lactation:

Essential Oil Massage:

When a lactation consultant is inducing lactation, he or she will usually first lubricate the hands and breasts with essential oils, and then use the palms of both hands to gently push and stroke along the mammary ducts from all sides of the breasts toward the nipples, in order to clear the mammary ducts of the young mother and make the breasts soft. Finally, use your thumb and index finger to squeeze around the areola to achieve the effect of promoting lactation.

Meridian acupoint therapy:

Some lactation consultants claim to use the so-called meridian and acupoint therapy to dredge the milk ducts one by one, while effectively promoting the microcirculation of the local lymphatic system, and finally use professional techniques to clean out the proliferative fibrosis particles that previously remained in the breast.

Taking lactation-promoting foods:

In addition to massage to induce lactation, some lactation consultants also sell certain types of lactation-inducing foods to mothers, claiming that the raw materials of these foods are made from a variety of natural precious plants that are both medicinal and edible, which can regulate endocrine disorders, increase the secretion of pituitary prolactin, stimulate breast development, reduce the secretion of lactation inhibitory factor, lead to an increase in pituitary prolactin, activate breast cells, and make breast cells secrete milk, etc.

The lactation consultant technique is a very good choice for women who need to induce lactation, and it is relatively safer than drug treatment. But there are risks in everything, so it is better to be cautious. There are many methods of lactation induction nowadays. Some lactation consultants just want to make money and do not have any professional skills. Therefore, pregnant women who need to induce lactation must do a good investigation beforehand and avoid being deceived and wasting money. If you don't know how to do it yourself, you can find a lactation consultant with good skills.
