Many lactating mothers will give up many delicious things based on the concept of "everything is for the good of the baby". At parties, they can only watch others drink coffee, and at dinners, they can only look at the wine and sigh. The baby is born, why can't these be touched? This baby refuses to accept, please solve it!
It is rare to have afternoon tea. Can you have tea, coffee and chocolate?
I haven't seen my best friend for a long time. I'm going to a coffee shop for a date. Can breastfeeding mothers only drink boiled water in the coffee shop?
There is no need to wronged yourself! Generally speaking, lactating mothers can drink coffee in moderation, and it is no problem to drink no more than 2 ~ 3 cups of coffee every day.
Studies have shown that even if breast-fed mothers drink coffee, only a very small amount of caffeine can enter the baby's body through breast milk, and these will be metabolized in a short time, which will not have adverse effects on breast-feeding, so mothers who love coffee don't have to worry.
However, we should also pay attention to individual differences. After all, every baby is different.
If you find that the breast-fed baby is upset after drinking coffee, drink less or choose decaffeinated coffee next time.
It is particularly important to note that premature babies metabolize caffeine much more slowly than ordinary babies, so if new mothers want to breastfeed premature babies, it is recommended to eat less caffeinated foods, such as coffee, tea, energy drinks and chocolate.
I'm in the mood. Would you like a drink?
Nowadays, drinking a few cups is a common thing in people's daily life, and lactating mothers will also be interested. When they want to drink, can't they really drink at all?
Our principle is: drinking is not recommended during lactation, and you don't have to worry too much about drinking once in a while. You can drink a little, but there are principles.
1. Occasionally drink a little.
AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) suggests that if you must drink alcohol, you should not drink more than 0.5 grams per kilogram of body weight. For most mothers, a bottle of 355 mL beer or 1 18 mL wine is safe. If you drink too much, alcohol will inhibit lactation reflex, resulting in reduced milk secretion. Alcohol can also enter the milk, affecting the baby's health.
2. Don't breastfeed for at least 2 hours after drinking.
Some mothers think it's enough to squeeze out the milk and throw it away after drinking it, but it's useless. The alcohol concentration in milk is the same as that in blood. Even if it is squeezed out, as long as there is alcohol in the blood, there will be alcohol in the newly generated breast milk. If you drink on an empty stomach, the alcohol concentration in milk will reach the highest after 30 ~ 60 minutes; If you don't drink on an empty stomach, the alcohol concentration in milk will reach the highest after 60 ~ 90 minutes.
Therefore, for lactating mothers, you can breast-feed your baby before drinking, and try to breast-feed your baby after drinking for 2 hours until the alcohol metabolism in the blood is completed. In order to prevent the baby from being hungry, mothers can prepare some alcohol-free milk in advance and put it in the refrigerator.
The baby doesn't like these foods.
Compared with all kinds of foods that are afraid to eat during pregnancy, mothers who have given birth to children will still relax and have a variety of foods, so some mothers may find that after eating certain foods, their babies will resist drinking milk, or they will be agitated and crying when feeding. This is because the taste of breast milk will change because of the food the mother eats, and different babies also have preferences for the taste of breast milk.
From the experience of mothers, her baby likes the following foods the least:
Some condiments: cinnamon, garlic, curry, pepper, Chili noodles.
Some fruits: orange, lemon, grapefruit, strawberry and pineapple.
Some vegetables: onion, broccoli, cauliflower.
There are also some cold milk-returning foods.
Meat: Pork heart, duck meat, squid and other sweet and cold meat will reduce raw milk, and it is best not to eat it for breastfeeding mothers.
Vegetables: Portulaca oleracea, cucumber, wax gourd, bitter gourd, watermelon, bamboo shoots, etc. Cold sex can cause gastrointestinal discomfort or lactation of lactating mothers, and mothers with small babies should not eat it.
Fruits: Pears, watermelons, oranges and other fruits are cold and not suitable for mothers with postpartum weakness.
Others: leeks, malt water and other foods have the effect of returning milk, so it is best not to eat them. Foods that make your baby allergic, such as oranges and onions, can cause your baby to have diarrhea and flatulence. In addition, mothers should pay more attention to whether there is a rash on the baby's skin and avoid eating food that will cause allergies to the baby.
Of course, this is just a reference. Mothers are most familiar with their babies. If you suspect that a certain food has caused your baby not to drink milk, you can try to stay away from this food for a few days before eating it to determine your guess. In addition, the risk of food allergy needs to be considered. For breastfed babies, the mother's diet may be an allergen. If your family is allergic to certain foods, please try to avoid them.
These foods are good for mom.
Amy's mother can eat more fruits with high vitamin C content, such as lemon, grape, grapefruit and kiwi fruit.
Eat more foods that can make the skin smooth, such as eel, egg yolk, animal liver, dark green vegetables, etc., which can supplement vitamin A.
To prevent mother's postpartum hair loss, you can eat more nuts, dairy products, soy products and so on.
Of course, this is just a reference. Don't force yourself to eat for beauty. Maybe the baby doesn't like it. Give priority to taking care of the baby during lactation.
