Why no breast milk?

For every woman, pregnancy and childbirth is a long and painful process. After finally going through this process, the baby is finally born successfully. Next, she has to face the long process of raising the baby. The main nutrition of a newborn baby comes from the mother's breast milk, so if there is no breast milk after giving birth, the harm will be very great, which will make the mother very anxious. So what are the reasons why mothers have no breast milk?

Why no breast milk?

All the glory and pride in the world come from mothers. Mother's love is a huge flame. There is one of the most beautiful voices in the world, and that is the call of mother. Wherever mom is, that is the happiest place!

Being a mother is a great and sacred profession, but it is also extremely hard work. What is needed is not only the physical support of the mothers, but also their perseverance and persistence. Some people have so much milk that they can’t finish it all, while others can never have enough. So, why do some people not have breast milk?

In fact, only a very small number of mothers have no breast milk. Generally speaking, unless the mammary glands are completely underdeveloped, or there has been an injury or breast surgery, there will be milk. Then why do some people not have breast milk? Due to insufficient knowledge, formula milk is now considered miraculous, and most people think that formula milk is better. We have gradually forgotten that breast milk is the best food for babies. In fact, breast milk secretion is a normal process. It is really infuriating to attribute all situations to the mother’s lack of milk or insufficient milk... It is not easy for mothers either!

Do you actually know? It is very normal not to feel milk swelling in the first few days after delivery. In fact, as long as the baby is sucking, the baby has unknowingly obtained the necessary colostrum through sucking. However, many people think that no milk swelling means no milk. In addition, breast milk is easy to digest, so babies will suckle frequently, which many people interpret as insufficient breast milk. In fact, when a baby is just born, his appetite is very small and he can't eat as much as you imagine. So don’t misunderstand and switch to feeding formula milk. Without the baby’s sucking to stimulate lactation, there may not be milk in the later stages.

Some people judge that they do not have enough milk because they cannot squeeze out milk or the amount squeezed out is very small. In fact, this is because the efficiency of the breast pump is not as good as the baby's sucking, so the amount of milk squeezed out cannot be used to judge the amount of milk. Some people think that the milk supply is insufficient because the baby has not defecated for many days. In fact, there are great individual differences between breastfed babies. As long as the stools are soft and the nature of the stools do not differ much each time, it is normal to defecate once every few days or several times a day. Others are because the baby has used bottles or pacifiers and has nipple confusion, and is unwilling to suck the mother's milk. This vicious cycle leads to poor growth, and people think that the mother does not have enough breast milk. In fact, in this case, the problem can be solved by correcting the baby's sucking method.

Another reason is that some mothers are already thin, and they become even weaker after giving birth. So what you need to do at this time is to regulate your body well, take the right medicine, pay attention to rest, eat a light diet, keep a happy mood, and take food supplements to achieve a balanced nutrition. Slowly, the milk supply will naturally increase. Don't lose heart!

Okay, back to the topic, there are actually very few mothers who do not have breast milk. Instead, many people do not have breast milk due to lack of knowledge about breastfeeding. Therefore, being a mother is really a difficult and great task. From the moment you plan to conceive a life, you need to keep learning and improving. Not only mothers, but family members should take action, because the goal is for the good of the baby, right? So don’t always blame the mothers, being a mother is really not easy.
