Nothing reflects the meaning of the word motherhood, as the sight of women in the infant at the breast. In this way the baby simply gets not only the portion of milk, but love.
Milk provides your child have a great start. Therefore, the sooner you start to feed, the better. Some mothers manage to have it within the first hour after birth. Provided of course that the baby simply will be placed on their stomach. Then - though still very tired childbirth - instinctively begins to look for breast cancer. Pediatricians encourage that babies fed only naturally by the first 6 months of life. Also urge that, if possible, give breast (parallel extending diet) to 1 birthday, and if it corresponds to the mother and child - even longer. Do not give up feeding only because they did not imagine such a time with the child at her breast. According to doctors, a month is important for the baby's health. Why? We milk contains about 400 nutrients and ideal for baby proportions of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. It also helps to protect the toddler from any infections, since, with the baby receives from you, the antibody, which itself has not yet produced. But the benefits are not just ad hoc. Research indicates that natural feeding reduces the risk of child allergies and asthma. Also reduces the likelihood that the toddler will be obese or have become ill with diabetes in the future. I also have health benefits for breast-feeding women. Among them is a lower risk of heart attack and stroke, and breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Not without significance is the fact that many mothers feeding helps to recover the statue! Feeding is impossible to burn up to 500 calories a day. In addition, while the baby sucks, the body we have is secreted oxytocin - a hormone that accelerates the shrink the uterus after childbirth. Together with the anti-allergic and easily digestible diet recommended by pediatricians, so feeding can work wonders. However, stimulating secretion of oxytocin - a hormone of love is sometimes called - has another goal. Strengthens the bond with the baby and the maternal instinct. The mutual emotional closeness is also influenced by physical contact, without which the feed is simply not possible. And since you already know why it is worthwhile to check the baby sucking the breast, how can you make it easier for both myself and him. The principle is simple: the more baby, the more you feed your breasts produce. Therefore, we have baby if you do not see yet, you have milk (as is sometimes the first few days after birth). At the beginning we give the child the breast every 2-3 hours. Less frequent feeding - for example, every 4 hours can make you have too little food, toddler will not tempt you and bottle. Meanwhile, before the quantity of milk the needs of your child (will not be neither too big nor too small) it may take up to 6 weeks and already you should not give up. If until then produced a shortage of food, make dietary conscience. Are you drinking enough and eating properly? In order not to dehydrate, you should drink a glass of water after each feeding (or before).
At this point, your life is not a place for low-calorie diet. Could have a negative impact on lactation, because - as mentioned on the next - to produce milk, the body needs each day up to 500 calories more than usual. In addition to a healthy menu, a good way to increase lactation is feeding the child every time the two breasts and the administration of other until they are emptied first. You need to set the meal will an hour. When he first meets and begins to hunger for less greedily suck, gently insert a finger between the breast and the corner of his mouth, would you let go. Then Hold it vertically until it bounces and not only adherence to the other breast.
