Hi, I'm Xiaoqing, click "Follow" above to share parenting dry goods for you regularly.During the Chinese New Year, there is never a shortage of food. Breastfeeding mothers should not think that taking advantage of so many big fish and meat to eat during the Chinese New Year will increase the quality and nutrition of their milk.
However, you don't know that these meat dishes are relatively high in fat, which is easy to make the stomach uncomfortable, and will also affect the quality of milk, and even lead to milk stasis.
A few days ago, her best friend (Xiaofang) wanted to take advantage of the current Chinese New Year period to visit relatives and have a meal together.
Xiaofang is a new mother and is also breastfeeding.
Moreover, recently, she has also been worried about the lack of breast milk, and she thinks that she usually eats quite casually at home.
It just so happens that now for the Chinese New Year, I go to my relatives every day, and the meals are different every day.
Then, she let go and ate a meal to satisfy her appetite.
She said: "After following and visiting relatives every day, in addition to gaining weight, I recently felt chest pain, and there were some hard lumps locally, and the baby was even more painful when he was **. ”
As someone who has come before, everyone knows that having such an experience is a milk blockage.
During the Chinese New Year, visiting relatives is always unavoidable. But for the sake of the baby's rations, mothers should pay attention.
To avoid milk blockage during the New Year, mothers should avoid eating in terms of diet, eat and pay attention!
Avoid greasy dietDuring the Spring Festival, I visited relatives, and there were big fish and meat on the table, as well as soup.
Although excessive fat consumption will not change the fat content of the milk, it will change the composition of fatty acids and may increase the risk of fat particles clogging the milk ducts.
Moreover, it is not good for the baby, it increases the fat content of the milk, and some babies cannot tolerate and absorb this high-fat milk, and diarrhea will occur.
Avoid spicy
In order to make the food more delicious, many of them put some spicy spices on it.
However, these spicy seasonings are not suitable for breastfeeding mothers.
Spicy foods are: fennel, garlic, chili, pepper, ......These foods help to heat the body, making breastfeeding mothers prone to irritation, mouth and tongue sores, throat inflammation, dry stools and other ......
The mother has internal heat, and will also give it to the baby through breast milk, and the baby will also produce internal heat.
Avoid pickled foods
Preserved foods contain a lot of nitrite, and nitrite is a chemical that can affect your baby's mental development and pose a risk of cancer.
The amount of salt per day is 45 6 grams, according to the usual habits, do not avoid salt, and do not eat too salty.
If the breastfeeding mother consumes too much salt, it will increase the burden on the kidneys, which is not good for the kidneys, and will also increase blood pressure.
Avoid foods that are prone to allergies
During the Spring Festival, many of them will have some seafood. For example: shrimp, crab and other ......
Breastfeeding mothers who eat these seafood will easily induce eczema in their babies.
5.Avoid raw and cold fruits
Fruits can replenish vitamin C in the body, and can also maintain the health of ** and replenish water in the body.
However, do not eat frozen fruits while breastfeeding. Because breastfeeding mothers eat raw and cold fruits and give milk to their babies through milk, the baby may experience gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea and other symptoms.
Therefore, if the breastfeeding mother really wants to eat it, she can eat the fruit at room temperature or heat the fruit before eating.
Avoid alcohol
Alcohol may inhibit the lactation reflex, which can reduce milk production. Also, alcohol can enter the milk and disrupt your baby's sleep routine.
Reduced sleep time can affect your baby's brain development and neurodevelopment.
Avoid coffee
Many mothers like to drink coffee, but too much coffee intake can affect your baby's behavior and sleep habits. For example: difficulty falling asleep, irritability, ......
If you really want to drink coffee, it is recommended to drink 1-2 small cups a day and breastfeed two hours after drinking.
Ensure your iron intakeThe average person's daily iron intake requirement is 15-20 mg, and the postpartum mother needs to increase to 25 mg.
If the postpartum mother's diet is not enough iron**, it is easy to cause the mother's anemia and reduce the content of breast milk, which will affect the baby's health.
Eat iron-rich foods such as pork liver, lean chicken, lotus root, ......
Eat abundant high-quality proteinWhen new mothers experience a lack of breast milk, they need to consume more nutrients, especially high-quality protein. This is because protein is a great aid to the production of milk.
Therefore, lactating mothers should increase their daily intake of high-quality protein by 25 grams to 80 grams per day.
For example, fish, poultry, eggs, lean meat, and soy foods are the best high-quality proteins.
DHA ingestionDHA is docosahexaenoic acid, also known as "brain**", and is also an essential nutrient for the development of the baby's nervous system, especially the brain and retina.
DHA is not high in common foods, but the content in breast milk is closely related to the diet of lactating mothers.
Therefore, lactating mothers should eat foods rich in DHA.
For example: deep-sea fish, eel, chia seed oil, small yellow croaker, kelp, ......
This ensures that the milk is able to provide enough DHA for the baby.
Calcium supplementationCalcium is an indispensable mineral for the normal development of your baby's bones, muscles, and nerves.
Studies have shown that breastfeeding mothers need about 800-1200 mg of calcium per day to make their milk contain more than 300 mg of calcium per litre.
Calcium-rich foods such as milk, soy products, shrimp ......
Stay in a good moodThe mother's emotional state can infect the baby and affect the quality and secretion of milk, so the mother needs to be in a good mood.
Don't get overtired
If you are too tired during breastfeeding, it is easy to induce mastitis. Mom must have plenty of time to rest.
If the baby is too sticky, the mother can give the baby to the grandparents or dad at home to take care of you for a while, so that you have enough rest.
Pay attention to your water intake
Lactating mothers drink a moderate amount of water, lactation requires a lot of water, and it is easy to sweat, so it is necessary to hydrate.
Breastfeeding mothers should drink enough water every day to ensure breast milk production.
In addition to drinking water, you can also replenish water by drinking milk, milk soup, etc.
However, it should also be noted that mothers should not wait to be thirsty before drinking water, and it is best to drink some warm water before and after feeding.
Avoid going without breastfeeding for long periods of time
If the usual feeding frequency is disrupted, and the R room is too swollen and the milk is not discharged in time, it will be easy to block the milk.
Therefore, if the mother goes out temporarily and does not accompany the baby for a long time, she can go out with the ** device.
When the milk is engorged, you can go to the bathroom to drain some milk.
Adjust the breastfeeding position of the baby** moreThere are some babies who will suck very seriously, and it is easy to solve, but there are some parts of the milk blocking lump that do not disappear so easily.
However, these processes take time.
The mother can adjust the baby's breastfeeding position to suck and then press the chin against the lump, or gently massage the r's room while breastfeeding.
Targeted hands**Wash your hands, place your thumb above the r-stun, and hold the r-room with the other four fingers in a "c" shape.
Gently press on the side of the ribcage, and then squeeze the rroom with your thumb and forefinger, but be careful not to slide your fingers on the **.
Relax-squeeze-relax to form a stable knot.
Put the expressed milk in a sterilized bowl. But be careful about your posture, you can sit at a table or a work table so that you don't bend over because the bowl is too low.
Although it is troublesome to block milk, as long as you know how to deal with it, it can be solved quickly.
During the Spring Festival, pay attention to a light diet, do not eat greasy soups, meals, and do a good job of daily care, you can reduce the occurrence of milk blockage.
If there is a milk blockage, it should be treated in time and do not develop mastitis.
