It is easy to get angry during lactation, so many women will eat bitter gourd to get rid of fire. Bitter gourd can clear away heat and toxic materials, enhance immunity, and beautify and lose weight. However, bitter gourd is a cold food. Although eating it will not make women return to milk, the ingredients in bitter gourd will be passed on to the baby through milk, which may make the baby have diarrhea.
Breastfeeding interval
After the baby is born, the mother's milk will be the baby's first meal, so it is necessary to breastfeed as soon as possible to promote the mother's milk secretion. Moreover, colostrum is rich in antibodies, and the baby should eat the mother's colostrum in time. Under normal circumstances, if the delivery mother and baby are normal, breastfeeding can start in 0.5 ~ 2 hours.
