What should I do if the lactation period is up and the milk becomes less?
1, the decrease in menstrual flow during lactation and the increase in menstrual flow during lactation do not mean that the wet nurse is in poor health or unhealthy, not to mention that there is something wrong with the quality of milk. Only after menstruation, the amount of milk secretion will decrease and concentrate, especially after 8~ 10 months, mainly due to fat reduction and protein increase. Although it can't meet all the nutritional needs of the baby, this breast milk is harmless to the baby.
2. Less milk during lactation. After breastfeeding mothers come to menstruation, they should pay attention to: monitor the baby's weight development and don't rush to wean. If the amount of milk really can't meet the baby's needs, you can add complementary food.
3. Mom drinks more boiled water during menstruation and eats more fish, milk, poultry, vegetables and vegetable soup. Ensure adequate sleep, maintain emotional relaxation and mental comfort; Appropriately increase the frequency of breastfeeding; Both breasts should be sucked empty.
How to do more menstrual flow during lactation?
1. After delivery, sucking the nipple can reflexively inhibit the mother's hypothalamus, thus inhibiting ovarian ovulation. However, if the baby sucks less nipples, the milk secretion is reduced, the milk concentration is reduced, or breastfeeding is stopped, or the parturient is affected by the environment, climate, emotional changes and sexual life, the inhibitory effect of prolactin on gonadotropin is weakened, and the ovary will recover from the static state during breastfeeding, expel mature eggs, and gradually restore the menstrual cycle. Don't worry, irregular menstruation during lactation is normal.
Breastfeeding is a simple contraceptive method, so there is no need to take any contraceptive measures. After a woman is pregnant, due to endocrine changes, the ovary stops ovulating and the menstrual cycle stops accordingly. During lactation, the anterior pituitary gland secretes a lot of prolactin. Therefore, the production of follicles is relatively inhibited and ovulation cannot be achieved. Therefore, lactating women generally do not ovulate and conceive within six months to one year.
3. If you encounter it, you don't have to worry about the amount of menstruation during lactation, because this special situation during lactation is that when the female body is adjusting, it is different from before, and it will return to normal in three or four months after delivery.
