Many lactating mothers will find that their milk often presents different colors, which is obviously different from the milk secreted by other lactating mothers. The milk secreted by the mother is sometimes grayish white, sometimes milky white and sometimes yellow. So which color is good for breast milk?
After giving birth to a child, the color of breast milk is different at different stages. These colors of breast milk contain a lot of nutrition. Women will initially secrete colostrum after delivery, and the color of colostrum is grayish white. Gray milk contains a lot of nutrients, including a lot of carbohydrates, minerals and protein.
After the breast milk is drunk by the baby for a period of time, the breast milk will gradually turn white. At this time, the milk contains a lot of fat, and it is easy for the baby to feel full after drinking. Yellow breast milk is rich in disease-resistant substances. After the baby drinks it, it can not only improve the body immunity, but also effectively avoid rickets.
In addition, the food and some drugs ingested by pregnant women in their usual diet are likely to lead to changes in the color of milk. If you eat some vegetables with high pigment content, the color of milk may turn red, orange, green or dark gray, which will not reduce the nutritional content.
