Harm of not eating staple food during lactation
Many mothers will have some changes in their body shape and weight after pregnancy and childbirth. Therefore, many mothers who love beauty hope to recover their slim figure as soon as possible after giving birth. However, if the mother chooses to breastfeed her baby after delivery, it is not recommended to lose weight. So some pregnant women want to lose weight by reducing their intake, so can they eat less staple food during lactation?

Generally speaking, lactating mothers can't eat less staple food, because if mothers eat less staple food, they can't get enough nutrition, and their physical fitness will deteriorate because of insufficient nutrition, resulting in insufficient milk secretion. This will have a certain impact on the baby's growth and development. If the baby doesn't have enough to eat for a long time, it will be malnourished, which will eventually lead to the baby's growth retardation and even affect his intellectual development. Therefore, you can't reduce breastfeeding by eating less.

For lactating mothers, we should pay attention to reasonable nutrition collocation, especially protein, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates and other foods, such as fresh lean meat, chicken and fish. Eat more seasonal fruits and vegetables, and eat less or no sugary candy and high-calorie, spicy and irritating fried food. This can not only keep the milk secretion sufficient, but also make the milk contain a variety of nutrients, which is conducive to improving the baby's immune function.

Lactating mothers can do moderate exercise, such as going out for a walk after breakfast and dinner, or doing some simple yoga and housework. In addition, by adjusting eating habits and increasing the frequency of chewing when eating, it can help the stomach digest food, reduce the mother's desire to continue eating, drink more water, ensure adequate sleep time, massage her legs frequently, and insist on breastfeeding, which can help her consume body fat and calories and help her lose weight.
