How long does it take to produce breast milk during pregnancy? Generally speaking, breast swelling will be noticeable in the early stages of pregnancy, and most pregnant women will produce milk 1-3 days after giving birth. However, a few people also have a small amount of secretion in the late pregnancy, which is lighter and thinner than normal milk. This phenomenon is more common in obese women, those with large breasts, and those with excessive nipple stimulation. If there is no abnormal feeling, there is no need to worry, just pay attention to breast hygiene.

When is breast milk produced during pregnancy?

In the early stages of pregnancy, the breasts of expectant mothers will swell slightly to squeeze out milk due to slight changes in the baby in the belly.

1. This depends on the individual. Generally, lactation will occur in September. It is caused by estrogen. It is recommended that you pay more attention to the hygiene of the breasts and do not squeeze them with your hands. It is a preparation for the birth of the newborn in the future. Pregnant women have sufficient breast milk after giving birth.

2. Some people start to secrete milk in the late stages of pregnancy. Generally, vaginal delivery will secrete milk earlier, while cesarean section will secrete milk a little later. Letting the baby suck the nipple as early as possible can help the mother secrete milk.

3. Generally speaking, breast milk overflow will also occur in the late stage of pregnancy, but breast milk overflow varies from person to person. What you are producing is breast milk, so it is only the minimum breast milk overflow. At this time, you should pay attention to breast hygiene. Real breast milk overflow will only occur within 1-3 days after delivery. If it is a caesarean section, breast milk will leak out within a week.

After a woman becomes pregnant, her body will secrete a lot of estrogen, which will stimulate the growth of her breasts. Therefore, there will be breast pain and swelling at this time. The symptoms are usually obvious around 12 weeks of pregnancy, and will gradually weaken after this period of time. Therefore, what pregnant women need to pay attention to at this time is to avoid excessive anxiety, eat spicy food, and don't eat food containing hormones.

Breast growth and development in the early stages of pregnancy do not require medication treatment, otherwise the patient may affect the normal growth and development of the child due to the efficacy of the medication. Pregnant women can usually perform breast massage to prevent blockage of the breast tubes. At this time, if breast discharge or excessive pain occurs, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination first. If it is a breast disease, pay attention to choosing the appropriate treatment method.

Only when pregnant women's breasts are healthy can they ensure normal breastfeeding in the future. Women should prevent mastitis, relax on a daily basis, and avoid eating foods that are difficult to digest. Breast swelling will be more serious during the prenatal period of pregnancy, so pay attention to hygiene and massage the breasts.
