Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can I eat chocolate during breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
The cocoa alkaloids in chocolate can enter breast milk and be passed to the baby through breastfeeding, damaging the baby's nervous system and heart, leading to digestive problems, sleep disturbances, and constant crying. Additionally, regularly consuming chocolate can affect the appetite of the postpartum woman, causing insufficient nutritional supply to the body. This not only affects the physical recovery of the postpartum woman but also hinders the baby's growth and development.
