Patient's question:
Patient Age: 24Detailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation: I am 26 days postpartum. Why does my milk flow intermittently, sometimes gushing out, and at other times making me feel like the baby isn't getting enough?
Doctor's answer:
The secretion of milk is influenced by many factors. To ensure an adequate milk supply, the following points should be followed: Increase the frequency of breast stimulation and adopt the correct sucking posture. Effective and proper sucking is the most effective stimulation for milk production. The more frequently the breasts are stimulated, the more beneficial it is for milk secretion. Generally, it should be adjusted flexibly according to the baby's hunger and fullness, with both breasts alternately stimulated each time. It is important to maintain a calm mood and enhance nutrition. A diet high in protein, calories, and vitamins should be provided. Fish can be consumed, along with more fish soup, chicken soup, meat soup, and other types of broth.
