Patient's question:
Now it has been nearly 20 days since I gave birth. I usually like to eat crabs. Because I was pregnant, I didn't eat any, but today I really wanted to, so I bought two crabs and ate them. I want to know how long after eating crabs can I breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
Do not eat crabs during pregnancy and delivery because crabs are cold-water products. Eating crabs during lactation can easily change the quality of milk, and children who drink milk containing this substance may have allergic symptoms. Therefore, after eating crabs, they must breastfeed the baby every 24 hours. During this period, the baby can be fed with breast milk. I suggest you eat light food during this time to avoid the baby feeling uncomfortable.
