Patient's question:
I haven't had a drop of milk since giving birth naturally. I hired a lactation consultant the day before yesterday, and now I'm enduring cold compresses every day. Using a breast pump every two hours still yields no milk. My baby was transferred to another hospital on the third night after birth (December 21st) due to pneumonia. The baby will be back home by Friday, and I'm so anxious about not having milk. I need to be able to feed the baby by Friday.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, I speculate that you don't know if your mother had enough milk when she had you. This situation can sometimes have a certain intergenerational genetic effect. It is recommended to drink more soups, such as chicken soup, fish soup, pig trotter soup, bean sprout soup, etc. If there is really no milk, then it can only be said that formula milk will have to be consumed. The above is advice on the question "12/2019:23 Natural delivery now and still no breast milk, not a drop of milk," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
