What to do if there is not enough breast milk

Not enough breast milk: what to do? This is probably one of the most common problems faced by mothers in the first months of a child's life.

It is worth noting right away that the actual shortage of milk is quite rare. It is possible to judge that a child really lacks nutrition by only one objective criterion: the number of urinations. If a child pees at least 12 times a day, he is fine, even if he "hangs" on his chest for hours. But if there really isn't enough breast milk, what should I do?

Not enough breast milk - ways to increase lactation

There are fairly simple and well-known ways to increase lactation. For a mom, the main thing is not to panic, and remember that only in 1-2% of cases lactation problems are really serious. In other cases, first of all, you need to set yourself up in a positive way.

It has been proven that psychological causes have a huge impact on milk production. Sometimes, just the certainty that you will be able to breastfeed a child is enough for lactation to get better. Of course, you should not let this matter take its course, and help the natural course of events with fairly simple actions. The first is to eat well and on time, as well as drink plenty of liquid, preferably hot.

Here are specific recipes to improve lactation. Many people are helped by Apilak, which can be purchased at any pharmacy at an affordable price, as well as special teas for nursing mothers. They can be purchased ready-made, in the form of granular mixtures, for example, Hipp or Theme.

Do not forget about such a traditional remedy as tea with milk. Although it is possible to hear the opinion that milk should not be drunk during the first year of a child's life. Of course, you shouldn't abuse milk, but a couple of spoonfuls added to tea won't do any harm. Tea must be sweet. Milk can be replaced with condensed milk, although some pediatricians do not welcome this. Make sure that the baby does not have colic – both milk and condensed milk can cause them.

We also recommend this recipe: pour half a cup of walnuts with boiled milk, leave for several hours in a thermos, and then drink a little.

Another recipe, which is also often recommended: stir in a glass of milk a few carrots, grated on a fine grater, let it brew, then strain and drink a little during the day. But, again, use this remedy, as described above, with caution, to ensure that the child does not develop an allergy to one of its components.

From personal experience, there really were problems with lactation: tea made from "natural" herbs, a normal diet and the consumption of large amounts of liquid helps. Moreover, it is recommended to drink not so much before feeding as after it, since it is at this time that the largest amount of milk is formed.

During bathing– a hot shower is required, which is directed clockwise to the chest. Practice shows that, despite the fact that a large number of mothers often do not have enough breast milk, almost any woman can solve lactation problems within one to two weeks, if desired.
