Many experts recommend breastfeeding for women during the lactation period. Because this way the baby can get more adequate nutrition. However, some girls will have less milk after their menstruation, and as the baby's appetite increases, they will be unable to feed the baby normally. However, some doctors say that menstruation does not affect the secretion of milk. So, does it really happen that the amount of milk decreases after menstruation? 1. Will breast milk decrease during menstruation? According to outpatient statistics, it is very common for new mothers to have their first menstrual period during the first prenatal check-up 42 days after delivery, but many people will have a gap of two to three months or even longer before their next menstrual period after the menstruation resumes. This is actually caused by "breastfeeding". For new mothers who do not breastfeed, their menstruation will generally resume within 6-10 weeks after delivery. However, for new mothers who breastfeed, the time of resumption of menstruation is extremely variable and may resume at any time within the 2nd to 18th month after delivery, with an average of 6-8 months. Some new mothers even do not have a menstruation during the breastfeeding period. 2. Breastfeeding precautions 1. Breastfeeding posture Correct feeding posture is important for breastfeeding When feeding the baby, the mother can completely relax herself, sit or lie in a comfortable position, and use pillows or quilts to support herself or the baby during breastfeeding. Let the baby be close to the mother, with his face facing the mother's breast and his nose facing the nipple, so that the baby can suck comfortably. 2. Pay attention to night feeding Many mothers feel very tired during the confinement period. Coupled with the constant feeding and changing diapers for their babies during the day, they feel even more sleepy at night. New mothers must be careful when feeding their babies at night. If they feed while lying down, they must avoid blocking the baby's nostrils with their breasts. 3. Breastfeeding time It is recommended that newborns be fed on demand, generally every 2 to 3 hours during the day. In the first 3 months after the baby is born, breastfeeding is needed 8 to 10 times every 24 hours. Breastfeeding often helps a mother's body produce more milk and prevents her breasts from becoming too full. |
