Can I drink beer after weaning?

When our baby is about six months old, the mother can add some complementary food. Some parents may choose to wean their baby at about six months for their work. Of course, you are very free to decide when to wean your baby. If you are not very busy at work, you can choose to wean your baby after he or she is one year old. So, can you still drink beer after weaning?

If the baby does not drink breast milk, the mother is free to eat whatever she wants and does not need to worry about it. In addition, the wheat component in beer can help to reduce milk production and is helpful for weaning.

What is the best way to wean?

Let the baby wean off breast milk: If you want to wean the baby off breast milk, you must first let the baby successfully wean off breast milk. Otherwise, the baby will become craving for milk and will continue to suck on it intermittently, making it impossible for the baby to be weaned. It takes about a week to wean a baby off breast milk. The baby is more dependent on breast milk at night. It doesn’t matter whether the baby is fed with breast milk or formula during the day, so if the baby can successfully stop eating breast milk at night, it means that the baby has been successfully weaned.

Methods to wean babies from breastfeeding: 1. Mothers feed their babies milk powder, especially at night. As soon as the baby wants to eat, immediately give him milk powder to drink, so that he can get used to eating powder at night. If the baby insists on snuggling into your arms and crying loudly, mothers will definitely have a hard time picking up the baby, coaxing him, and then feeding him a bottle. 2. You can rub some cooling oil or chili water on the nipple. The baby will feel the spiciness when he feeds on the milk and will immediately let go. After trying a few times, the baby will know that he cannot drink the mother's milk. Because he is hungry, he will accept milk powder. Mothers do not need to worry. A small amount of chili water is fine. The baby will just touch it and will not suck it if the taste is not right.

Take milk-suppressing medicine: If you are determined to wean your baby, go to the drugstore and buy milk-suppressing medicine. The milk will gradually stop coming out, allowing mothers to shorten the weaning time, reduce the number of days of milk swelling, and reduce pain.

Using a breast pump: It will take about 7 days to return to normal after weaning. In the first three days, the milk will be very swollen, and the blue veins will be visible. It will hurt when touched, and there will be milk lumps. You can't even sleep, and the tightness is very uncomfortable. Mothers should not force themselves at this time. Using a breast pump to suck out some milk will not affect weaning. Just suck until you don't feel uncomfortable or tight. Don't suck too much, and then let the milk slowly return on its own. If you don't use a breast pump to suck out the milk, it may cause complications such as fever.

During the weaning period, mothers should pay attention to their diet and must not eat foods that are conducive to milk production, especially crucian carp soup or pig's trotter soup. These foods will make the milk very abundant and are therefore not conducive to successful weaning. Try to eat light food. If the baby always cries during weaning, mothers should be hard-hearted, as this is a process that must be experienced.
