Many women will feel breast engorgement when they are weaning. How many days will it take for breast engorgement to subside for breastfeeding women? It is very common to feel breast engorgement when weaning. At this time, women can use a breast pump to suck out the milk to avoid mastitis.

1. How many days will it take for breast milk swelling to heal after weaning off breast milk?

After breastfeeding, women will almost always experience milk engorgement when they wean their children. This will make women feel very uncomfortable and they all want to return to normal as soon as possible.

1. Women usually experience breast engorgement after weaning their children, but how long it lasts varies from person to person. For some women, it may last longer. However, the average duration of breast engorgement is about one week.

2. When a woman’s breasts are swollen and uncomfortable, she should use a breast pump to extract the milk to avoid milk congestion and mastitis. During the period of milk swelling, try to drink less water, otherwise the swelling will become more serious.

3. Weaning should be done gradually. During the weaning process, as the child's sucking time and frequency decrease, the secretion of milk will gradually decrease. Women can use this to gradually reduce their milk secretion, so that they will not experience severe milk engorgement after weaning.

After a woman decides to wean her child, she should reduce breast stimulation to avoid excessive milk secretion, which will make breast engorgement worse. When women have breast engorgement, they must express the milk to avoid congestion.

2. What should babies eat after weaning?

After the child is weaned, the previous complementary food becomes the staple food. Moreover, children are in a stage of rapid growth and development, and their nutritional intake must be sufficient and balanced.

1. Give your child nutritious, soft and easy-to-digest food. Children around one year old do not have strong chewing and digestion abilities. Rough food is not easy to digest and may cause diarrhea.

2. Each type of food is rich in different nutrients, so children’s food should be as diversified as possible to ensure that they have a balanced nutritional intake. Too few types of food can easily cause children to lose their appetite and cause nutritional imbalance.

3. Do not feed your children any irritating food. When a child is just weaned, his or her taste buds and digestive tract cannot accept irritating foods, which will make the child very uncomfortable.

4. After weaning, children cannot eat the same meals as their parents. Parents should prepare some suitable food for their children.

The food that children eat after weaning cannot be random. Parents need to put some thought into it. The food prepared should be soft and delicate, nutritious and easy to digest.
