What should I do if my newborn baby is not full of breast milk?

Many breastfeeding mothers find that their breast milk is not enough to feed their children. Faced with this problem, many parents choose to feed their children with milk or milk powder. In fact, this approach is not the most appropriate. It is normal that breast milk is not enough for feeding in the early stage, but you still need to insist on breastfeeding. You can feed the baby several times a day. In addition, breastfeeding mothers should eat more foods that are beneficial to milk production. In this way, breast milk is sufficient for feeding.

In terms of nutritional content, mother's milk is most suitable for infant digestion and absorption, and the ratio of its protein, lactose and other ingredients is also most suitable for children's needs. Breast milk will change at different stages to adapt to the growth and development needs of the child. Colostrum contains a large amount of immunoglobulin. The protein content of mature milk gradually increases after 2-3 weeks, and the fat content of late milk after 10 months is high.

The most important thing is that the immune substances in cow's milk, goat's milk and formula milk produced by scientific technology cannot be compared with those in breast milk. More importantly, the secretion of mother's milk is adapted to the capacity of the newborn's stomach.

Studies have found that breastfed babies grow normally in the first 1-2 years after birth, and their chances of obesity, high blood pressure, high blood lipids, diabetes, and coronary heart disease in adulthood are greatly reduced. The skin-to-skin contact between mother and child can make the baby feel more of the mother's love and care, and promote the development of its perception, motor and other abilities.

Breastfeeding has many benefits for children and also for mothers. Breastfeeding helps mothers regain their figure as soon as possible and reduces the chance of breast disease problems. Moreover, the breast milk in the first month is called colostrum, which has extremely high nutritional value, so even if the breast milk supply is low, you must not give up breastfeeding.
