Should breastfeeding be stopped if a breastfeeding woman is pregnant?
💁🏻♀ It is well known that the reason for breastfeeding (not seeing the moon) is that most mothers don’t even think about avoiding pregnancy.
In fact, as soon as additional nutrients are added to the baby's daily diet, ovulation is restored in the body (no doubt). This means that unexpected pregnancies should be avoided.
👩🏻⚕ The word is to the pediatrician!
When a woman becomes pregnant prematurely, the lactation process does not stop by itself - the mother is forced to breastfeed the baby in her arms in any case.
But the fact is that the amount of lactose in the milk of a pregnant mother decreases due to hormonal changes. Sodium, on the other hand, goes medium, and as a result, the taste of breast milk changes (that is, it becomes less sweet). When the baby does not like the fresh taste of milk, he refuses to breastfeed and begins to freak out.
In addition, 70% of women who become pregnant during lactation experience a decrease in the amount of breast milk. Therefore, in both cases it is necessary to give the baby extra food and milk.
☝️We recommend this…
During pregnancy and lactation, physical, mental and hormonal changes occur in a woman's body. If a woman who is breastfeeding becomes pregnant, she should see a doctor and get "good" advice on what to do next.
We also recommend that you do not overlook a number of dangerous situations.
More precisely, when the baby is not breastfeeding, the mother's body begins to produce the hormone oxytocin. There is a risk of miscarriage as this hormone causes the uterus to contract.
💁♀ In general, gynecologists have two different opinions on this issue:
First, the hormone oxytocin does not affect the body of a pregnant woman until the fetus is 20 weeks old.
The second is that a pregnant woman’s continued breastfeeding of her first child is dangerous for both the mother and the unborn child. Caution should be exercised, especially in those who suffer from uterine fibroids and those who have previously had a miscarriage. In short, it is better not to breastfeed the first child until the fetus is the second trimester.
🤰🏻 Now let's eat for three!
A breastfeeding and at the same time pregnant woman now needs to feed for three people in cash. Just like those who are pregnant with twins, it is necessary to consume foods with high nutritional value. It is recommended to be very careful, especially if toxicosis is observed in the first trimester.
The female body first supplies the fetus, then the nursing baby, and finally itself with nutrients.
The lack of vitamin-rich foods in the diet is reflected in the growth and development of children.
That is, they are more likely to develop avitaminosis and related diseases. Decreased hemoglobin levels in women can lead to iron deficiency and chronic hypoxia.
🍼 Don't go astray when choosing a supplement!
Once you have decided to wean your baby, you need to do this slowly. We recommend that you do this at least two to three months before your second child is expected to be born.
Because during this time the baby forgets the mother's breast a little. First of all, it is necessary to give up breastfeeding during the day, to give the child extra food.
Then both morning and night breastfeeding should be slowly limited. Naturally, some problems, such as diarrhea and allergies, can be observed when giving a child extra food.
Therefore, we recommend that you consult a pediatrician when choosing food for your child.
As you reduce breastfeeding, your milk supply will also decrease. If this is not the case, we recommend the use of lactating drugs in accordance with the advice of your doctor…
