Old friends know that we have written a lot about less milk: the principle of lactation, the conditioning of qi and blood, the lack of angry milk... Almost all the questions about milk are not left behind. But there is a mother in the background message:
Teacher, can you write how to make the milk less! I have too much milk! What a pain!
- Is the milk still painful? Don't chase the milk is just not too cool!
Sure enough, the "little grass cow" mother did not understand the sadness of the "big cow" mother, just like the day did not understand the darkness of the night.
Milk does have problems including the baby's easy choking, frequent milk blockage, mastitis and so on. And as far as I know, there are not a few nursing mothers who are troubled by too much milk.
So why do some moms have so much milk? When there is a lot of milk, how do we adjust it? Today's article, we will talk in detail about the problem of too much milk, so that mothers with more milk can get rid of their troubles.
1, why too much milk
There are many reasons for the lot of milk, and we analyze them one by one.
Frequent emptying of breasts leads to oversupply
Under normal feeding, the breasts do not need to be emptied! No need to get up in the middle of the night to milk and empty your breasts to prevent mastitis and milk stasis!
As we all know, our milk secretion is carried out by stimulating lactation, stimulating more and secreting more. If we continue to empty the breasts, our body will feel that the milk produced is not enough for the baby to eat, so hurry up and work overtime to make the baby full. Therefore, the more milk is excreted, the more milk is produced, resulting in more and more milk.
Chong Ren's mother who does not have two pulses
What is the rush that doesn't work? The pulse and the ren pulse are not connected, resulting in nutrient retention in the chest, qi and blood can not go down, resulting in the food we absorb the nutrients are supplied to the breast into milk.
The mother of this situation, generally has a good spleen and stomach, that is, there is a lot of milk, which is actually caused by physical reasons.
2. The difference between milk and leakage
Does the milk leak have to be too much milk? Will too much milk necessarily leak? Neither, and there is no necessary connection between the two.
We often say that the reason for milk leakage is that the lack of air can not absorb milk, even if there is little milk, the breast is soft and soft, it will leak milk; and mothers with more milk, even if they are swollen, rarely leak milk.
3, how to do too much milk
In fact, in addition to making milk accumulate and easy to block milk, milk is also harmful to the mother's body. Therefore, if we want to improve the situation of milk, we must start from the following aspects:
Change supply and demand
If it is not back milk, don't use the breast pump to milk when you are fine, some mothers have a refrigerator full of milk, and the baby can squeeze out a lot after eating. If this is the case, remember that the baby will not squeeze after eating, and it is good to feed normally.
Lengthen feeding intervals
Our bodies have self-regulation mechanisms. If the milk is particularly inflated, the breast will secrete factors that inhibit the secretion of milk to reduce the secretion of milk, so we can appropriately lengthen the baby's feeding interval and let the body's self-regulation play a role.
Condition the body
If it is a mother who can't get through, there are some small methods of massage that you can try:
● Lie on the bed first, bend the elbow, close to the ribs, the elbow tip refers to the Zhangmen Acupoint, and the intersection point between the Zhangmen Acupoint and the horizontal line of the navel (Shen Yue) is the veined acupoint;
● Find the acupuncture point, with the thumb, index finger, middle finger pinch, must have the feeling of pinching to the tendon, and then add some force to lift, not to pull the belly, is to put the tendon up, there will be a little pain, if the vein is not clear, there will be obvious pain, each lift for about 5 minutes, this action can help to open the belt pulse very well;
● After lifting, then use the big fish in the palm of both hands to push the five pivot points and the vidro points in the groin, the method is to push from top to bottom, each time pushing for 5-10 minutes, this action can make the qi and blood go down.
Many people will advocate diet regulation, so that mothers with more milk eat less meat, eat less protein, fat-rich foods, in fact, the impact of diet is there, but not much. Mothers still start by adjusting their usual feeding habits and physical condition. After all, it doesn't stick to the meat, "concubines can't do it"!
I hope that mothers can balance supply and demand and feed their babies happily.
