In the middle of the night, I was still carrying two big stones on my chest, and I was groggy and washed milk powder for my children. After I finished washing, the child didn't drink milk powder, so I tried to wipe it for you. When I rubbed it on my chest, my teeth cracked with pain. At this time, Xiaoxiao hated her husband's work very much, and often traveled on business, so there was no way to ask for help.
Try to let the children eat longer. The World Health Organization advises us to breastfeed until we are about two years old. Children are about two years old and usually drink breast milk once or twice a day. Then the mother's milk secretion mechanism also knows that only 1 ~ 2 times a day, the milk will be relatively less, even if it is swollen, it will not hurt so much.
Generally, about two years old is a good time for a baby to wean naturally. The mother told the baby that the mother's breasts were going to rest, and the baby could drink milk powder or eat. Mother slowly transitioned from three times a day to twice a day, and stopped drinking at the last day. This step by step process. The baby is not so heavy on milk, and the mother's milk is not so swollen. Neither the baby nor the mother is so miserable.
Don't say you drank it six times today, and don't give it to your baby right away tomorrow. Breast milk secretion is not like a faucet. If you don't secrete it, you won't secrete it. When the breast does not adapt at once, it will still secrete milk according to the previous rhythm.
Mother should gradually reduce the number of breast-feeding one month in advance and start not to drink some foods that promote milk secretion. The most important ingredient in breast milk is water. If you don't drink so much water, the raw materials of breast milk will gradually decrease. In addition, don't let the baby stimulate so many times. There will naturally be less milk.
So weaning will be relatively comfortable. One is that the mother is not so miserable, and the other is that the baby is not so sad.
Isolation weaning is weaning children, just like mothers. Mother went to other places and couldn't hear the baby crying. Out of sight, out of mind, breast swelling gradually improved after a few days.
But the baby didn't see that his mother didn't get breast milk, which was devastating to her. The baby feels that the nutrition I rely on for survival every day is gone, and the source of my sense of security is gone. I was abandoned by the whole world.
When mom comes back, the baby doesn't want her and ignores her. Because the baby was badly hurt.
Don't stop breastfeeding if you want to wean yourself. For example, when you go out today, people say, Oh, your child is eight months old and finally stopped breastfeeding. As soon as you come back, you should wean your baby, so that the baby will be very uncomfortable, and the mother will be very uncomfortable, and even it is easy to fail. For example, the baby cries and gets sick and feeds her.
For example, if the baby has a cold, breast milk can also provide a lot of immunoglobulin to promote the healing of the child's cold. So don't give your child breast milk when you are sick, and wait until the child is well for a week or so.
Milk powder is usually added after breastfeeding, and adding new milk powder and new complementary food may cause allergies. Once allergic, it may not be clear whether it is caused by milk powder or new complementary food.
Children who are vaccinated will have a vaccine reaction. Weaning the baby at this time will make the baby more uncomfortable and may also lead to illness.
Breast milk can make children addicted. If weaning is not successful, it will be more difficult to breastfeed your child next time. Ma Jing has seen that she can't breastfeed at the age of three, even if she breastfeeds again after an unsuccessful weaning.
As a result, it was not successful at the age of three.
This time last year, I just completely weaned my twin babies at home. I can feel the feeling of weaning too much, but I don't feel physical or psychological pain.
Weaning pain is nothing more than two points.
First, my mother's breasts are swollen and her body hurts, so she needs to "wean" herself;
Second, children love milk and cry, and their mothers are heartbroken and want to wean their children.
My twins, 1 2 months old, are breast-fed.
The two children were separated from their parents and breast-fed twice. Let me share my experience.
1. Reduce the frequency and component of "milking" one month in advance.
From the beginning of breastfeeding, I have consulted about weaning, consulted pregnancy specialists in community hospitals, learned from prolactinists, and consulted breast-feeding specialists in women's and children's hospitals to sort out my own "weaning" methods.
I was a working mother when I was weaned last year. In order to let children eat more breast milk, I use my lunch break every day and others eat it. I will milk in the room where the company provides uniforms for employees, then go to eat and take it home for the children after work in the afternoon.
I am going to wean on National Day, and then I will start in September. No juicer is needed for milking at noon every day. I squeeze a little with my hand, it's not empty. I still give the baby a kiss at night. Stay at home at night, milk when the pain is severe, and don't empty it.
2, Chinese medicine and barley tea, let the body "wean"
It will be more convenient to wait until the National Day is officially weaned. Not only can you milk at noon. I can only grasp noon when I go to work, and I am afraid that I will have pain and mastitis in the afternoon if I don't milk. At home, you can squeeze again when it really hurts, and the number of times is not limited. Of course, try to reduce the frequency.
Repeated fever, milk blockage and breast invagination. The mammary duct is not straight or thin, and I am particularly afraid of going to the hospital for mastitis or blocking milk when weaning.
Taking Chinese medicine at the same time, you can go to the pharmacy to prescribe malt, bamboo leaf green and other medicinal materials, which is very cheap and more natural than a bag of broken milk tea.
For the next month, from June 65438 to 10, I drank barley tea every day.
After 2 months, it basically does not secrete milk.
Don't stop feeding or milking as soon as you plan to wean. It is easy to block milk or get sick. Give your body a buffer to accept the process of "not a cow".
If it is artificial weaning, not natural weaning, it is inevitable for children to cry.
My twins were weaned twice. Tell me about my situation.
1, 7-month-old child, simple and rude weaning.
Fine hair was carried to sleep by my mother after she was born. After I go to work, I can't see me during the day and don't sleep with me at night, so I am particularly attached to me. If I go home to nurse in the afternoon, the child will stay up late at night and argue with me for a long time, which will wet my mother's chest.
So my parents asked me to feed him clean hair and only fed him the breast milk I pulled out.
The method is simple and rude, just don't give it. After a few days, the child also adapted, maybe only seven months old.
Later, fine hair can watch her brother breast-feed, and he won't grab it, or watch it for a while to play by himself.
2, 1 year and 2 months, mother took "weaning"
I always sleep with it. Weaning is the first time for a child to get sick and take medicine, and he often needs to feed at night. I have to go to work, and my body can't stand it. Besides, he often wakes up and has a bad rest, which also affects his growth.
I don't want to put it off until the second spring of April and May, so I choose to wean my child in the autumn of National Day 65438+ 10.
I didn't isolate myself from the children. I didn't hide or send them away. I think this is cruel and inhuman. The child will not understand that it is weaning, but will only think that my mother doesn't want me. This is crying, but it also isolates the mother-child relationship.
I began to miss my family and get ready for bed. I don't care about the night. However, the three adults of the whole family went into battle together, and their father (grandmother) and grandfather (grandfather) did not get rid of the crazy crying right and left. I said I would try.
Then I held the baby in my arms and patted my ass, but I didn't give milk to drink.
Keep telling the children: "Mom loves you very much, and everyone loves you very much. Mom just won't breast-feed you. Do you still have milk? " We have grown up and are big children. Can we have a good sleep? "
After four nights of persistence, the children stopped kissing and drinking bottles before going to bed at night, and they went back to sleep!
I had a good time with my mother during the day.
Crying is inevitable, but when the mother is weaned, the child's crying will be much less sad. "Mom doesn't want me, but when I grow up and stop breastfeeding, she still loves me."
Moreover, weaning is also to let children sleep better, eat complementary food and eat good milk, so it is very important for mothers to realize that it is beneficial to give up small pains.
Do you know how painful it is to wean?
Seeing this question, I immediately clicked in, because I knew how painful it was. But everyone's weaning situation is different, personal physique is different, and the degree of weaning pain is also different. All I know is that I was crying, and I couldn't touch it. If you accidentally touch it, it is really unbearable.
When the baby was weaned, it was less than one year old. Because I have to work soon, I can only wean myself. Sometimes he looks at the crying face of the baby and feels uncomfortable. He really didn't want to wean, and almost went to the hospital ~
Some people say that maternal love is a gradual separation, and weaning is such a feeling. At that time, when weaning, the psychological gap was really big, and the distance between me and my baby became very far away. She is no longer so dependent on me. What I liked most before was her comfortable and secure expression when she was nursing in my arms. It feels far away after weaning.
It is best not to stop when weaning. Some treasure mothers may not be able to stand the baby's crying and start breastfeeding, and then wean. It's hard for a baby to quit after such repetition, so if you make up your mind, don't change it easily. When weaning, try to choose when the baby is not sick.
In addition, don't suck out all the milk when weaning, just keep it from bloating.
Personally, weaning is much less painful than giving birth. The baby was breast-fed to 1 year-old, and I weaned her just after 1 birthday. Because there was not enough milk for the baby at that time, I decisively cut off the baby's rations and gave the baby goat's milk. Share my weaning experience:
The first day: on the first day of weaning, I went to Wuhan by bus in the early morning, and the baby was left at home to take care of her mother, because if you don't go away, the baby will linger on you when he is hungry, and then use his killer weapon to cry all the time. I have been weaned by my baby several times, so sisters, if you want to wean, you must be tough. I remember I bought a ticket at 10. As soon as I got on the bus, I got a call from my mother, saying that the baby had not found her mother and was crying. At this time, my mother was cruel and couldn't hear the baby crying, so I picked up the phone and told the baby that my mother would come back after going out for a while. The baby won't cry, so my mother probably took him to play, so he forgot my grain depot for the time being. But then I will have an obvious feeling that my breasts are swollen. When I arrived in Wuhan, I felt so swollen that I had to wear 42 underwear. But it won't hurt. In the afternoon, I went to the gate of Simen, and when I was about to try on my clothes, my sister laughed at me. Your breasts are too big, I envy them. At that time, I thought it was really too big. When I changed my clothes, I felt a lump in my breast, but there were not many lumps. After shopping in the afternoon and going to the hotel, I obviously felt pain, but it would be like the pain when we injected needles into the meat. The pain is not intense.
The next day: when I got up in the morning, I found some milk leaking from the bed under me. At this time, all my breasts are lumps. I still have a fever, and my breasts are particularly painful. I have that burning sensation, especially edema. Feel with your own hands. At this time, I feel my breast is like a stone, but I must not touch it, because it hurts when I touch it. I feel that my chest will burst at the touch. I am very careful when changing clothes, because it really hurts. At that time, in order to distract myself, I kept walking. After two steps, I felt very tired, because you would carry two big stones. It was really painful in the afternoon, so I pinched it with my hand, and this swelling and pain will be relieved a lot. It's best to squeeze in the afternoon. At this time, the milk circuit has expanded back, and the rest is the milk accumulated in your breast. It can relieve the pain. Take a bath with hot water before going to bed at night, and the lump in the breast seems to soften automatically. I squeezed out, too, and I didn't have a fever.
The third day: I woke up in the morning, with no pain at all and a little milk in my breast. At that time, my breasts will become smaller than when you breastfeed. At this time, we are ready to go back. When I got home, the baby took a look at me and immediately climbed to my chest. I told the baby that I can't eat this grandmother, and I will eat this grandmother in the future. I am holding a bottle. At first, the baby was very resistant, so every time he drank milk, I stayed away from him for fear that he would miss me.
Before weaning, the mother should make the following preparations, so as not to cause the baby to starve to death when weaning.
1. Diversification of complementary food. When the baby is half a year old, add rice flour, steamed eggs, millet porridge, vegetable paste and the like to the baby, adjust the baby's intestines, expose him to various tastes, and reduce his dependence on breast milk.
2. Reduce contact with mother. Before the baby is one year old, it is almost always held by the mother all day. Lying in the mother's arms has a sense of familiarity and security. At this time, dad should interact with the baby more, hug the baby more, and reduce the baby's dependence on the mother.
3. Reduce the frequency of breastfeeding. When the baby is particularly hungry, let the baby's father or family take the bottle to feed the baby, because the baby knows that the father has no grandmother, and when he is particularly hungry, he will gladly accept the grandmother fed by his father.
Yes, it really hurt when I weaned Bauer. But there is no way. I was in poor health and needed rest. I had to wean him early.
Psychologists say that weaning is the second separation of mother and baby. This reminds me that maternal love is a kind of drifting away. Yes, but none of us can escape.
How does mom feel when she is weaned?
When I was weaned, my own feeling was that my children would not need me so much in the future. When you are hungry, you can drink milk powder or eat complementary food, but not your mother's milk. I read a picture book about bidding farewell to my mother's milk and finally cried. As a mother, I can't bear it. Weaning means that my baby and I have to communicate in another way, not the intimate contact when breastfeeding. In the first few days after weaning, when the baby was hungry, I subconsciously wanted to open it to feed the baby. It suddenly occurred to me that I was weaned and wanted to drink milk powder. Hands are shaking, and children can grow well without breast milk.
The feeling of the baby after weaning.
In the first few days, I weaned myself with Bauer. His heartbreaking cry crossed my mind and left a deep imprint on my heart. I know, but I have to put up with it. Bauer sometimes looks at me with sad eyes, which means she doesn't love me anymore? When weaning, we have less time to hold him, but more we are interacting and playing games. I don't want him to be too lonely.
When weaning your baby, you should make psychological and material preparations to ensure that your baby can get good nutrition even if he doesn't eat breast milk. I prepared milk powder for Bauer and the complementary food he has been eating recently. First wean him during the day, and then wean him gradually at night.
The hardest thing to break is the "milk sleep" before going to bed. Bauer has developed the habit of being cut off for seven months, which is actually very uncomfortable, so I will try to stay with him when I sleep, give him a sense of security and tell him that his mother is here.
When weaning, the mother's breasts may swell. You can suck some out, dump it or store it for other purposes, but don't suck too much, because the milk production of breasts is directly proportional to the demand. The more you suck, the more milk you produce. As long as it's not particularly high.
Remember to wean intermittently, that is, stop eating for two days. This is a very bad habit, and the baby will resist it and it will become more and more difficult to get rid of it. Don't wean your baby when he is sick or unwell. Try to wean your baby when he is healthy and has other stable nutritional intake.
In short, the pain during weaning is to make the baby grow better. Both the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Nutrition Society of China recommend breastfeeding until 24 months. However, due to force majeure, it is necessary to wean early, and it is also recommended to keep breastfeeding until about 1 year.
Lazy mother has just been weaned and has personal experience. How painful is weaning? Only weaned mothers will know that in the eyes of lazy mothers, weaning has psychological pain and physical pain respectively.
1. Psychologically. When feeding the baby the last meal, the lazy mother felt particularly uncomfortable. She always feels sorry for the baby. The baby was eating and giggling happily, completely unaware that this was his last meal of breast milk. Looking at the baby like this, the lazy mother feels particularly guilty. In addition to guilt, you still have to give up. It's been two years. Completely used to the baby's breast milk, suddenly said to wean. Although I am psychologically prepared, I really can't bear to give up this wonderful time.
2. physically. When the baby stops breastfeeding, the excess milk will accumulate on the breast, and then the milk will start to increase, and the breast will gradually become hard and painful, except for the pain. How painful is it? It hurts so much that I dare not move. When sleeping, lying on the right side hurts on the left side, lying on the left side hurts on the right side, and lying on both sides hurts. Lying hurts, sitting hurts, walking hurts and running hurts more.
Listen to what netizens say:
@ Pig: It hurts when weaning. I dare not move. I feel so miserable that I want to cry. It's even more terrible to see my child running over.
@ 京京京京京: I didn't dare to go at that time. It hurts when I walk. I was very scared and hurt when I saw the wind.
@ kapok tree: I was particularly afraid that someone next to me would accidentally touch me. As long as someone passes by far away, I want to protect my chest. It's better if there's no one within ten miles of Fiona Fang.
It can be seen that it is really painful to raise milk when weaning. Lazy mother has experienced it twice. The first time was painful, but I felt much better after the second experience. Although it hurts a little, I didn't take any medicine for the second weaning within the tolerable range.
What about weaning pain?
1. Step by step. After weaning, you plan to slowly reduce the frequency of feeding, so that the milk will be less and less, and it will not rise so much when weaning. Don't disconnect at once, or it will really hurt.
2. Mobile handling. If the breast pain is severe, a small amount of milk can be squeezed out. Remember that it is only a small amount, don't squeeze it all. New milk will be regenerated after milking, so you must never wean. So if it hurts too much, squeeze some out and stop feeling less painful.
If the chest doesn't hurt, or it only hurts slightly, then don't worry, just return the milk naturally.
3. Diet. If you have decided to wean, you can adjust your diet, don't eat breast-feeding food, and drink less soup and water. For example, chicken soup and crucian carp soup are not suitable for eating. Let's talk after weaning.
But there are some foods that can be eaten more, that is, foods that will lead to milk return, such as beans, fennel, maltose hawthorn and so on. Generally, they are matched when you go to a Chinese medicine shop to buy them.
4. medication. If the pain is really serious, the expectant mother can ask a doctor, prescribe some drugs to help her return to milk, or give an injection, soon.
As long as mothers do the above points when weaning, weaning will not be so painful, and the whole process of returning milk will take about a week.
Seeing this problem, I thought of the scene when I weaned my child.
I didn't have much milk at that time, but I knew that breastfeeding was good for children, so I insisted on it until the child was one year old. I began to wean my child after his first birthday.
Every lactating mother has to go through the process of weaning her child, and only those who have experienced it personally know the pain.
Every mother who raises a child has to experience two kinds of pain, one is physical and the other is psychological.
Weaning the child, two days before the start, although the child did not breastfeed, but the breast still secretes milk, chest pain. That kind of feeling is particularly uncomfortable and I dare not squeeze it out. In addition, the child is crying to find a mother to breastfeed, and the mood is really bad.
My breast is swollen into a lump, and thousands of needles are stuck in my chest and breast. I rolled on the bed in pain and cried in pain. Finally, my mother-in-law heard that she bought some fried malt in the drugstore to bring back milk, so she bought some to bring me water to drink. Anyway, after a week of pain, I slowly ran out of milk.
A mother can't bear to see her child cry. I dare not hold it for a few days after weaning. As soon as I hugged them, the children's mouths rubbed in my arms, looking for milk to eat. Sometimes I really can't help it, I just want to let them eat a few mouthfuls, but I'm afraid it's difficult to wean them, so I stubbornly don't give them food. In the first few nights, it was basically that the children cried and I cried.
I really can't bear it, but I know in my heart that this is actually the separation of mother and child, and this separation is necessary. Therefore, I am very entangled in my heart and I am very reluctant.
Weaning is the first separation between mother and child, but it is also for children's better growth and more nutritional intake.
1, if the breast is swollen and uncomfortable, you can actually squeeze out a small amount of milk, but don't squeeze it out completely, otherwise it will be counterproductive to promote milk secretion.
2. During lactation, we should pay attention to reducing the stimulation to breasts and nipples. Never let the baby suck on the nipple again, and never let the baby touch the breast.
3. Don't use hot towels or ice packs to compress breasts. Hot compress will lead to fermentation and deterioration of milk, leading to suppuration. Cold compress will make the milk form a milk knot, which is not conducive to the discharge of milk.
Son 1 year 4 months. I was lucky not to experience the pain of weaning, because there was not enough milk in the later stage. After the baby 1 year-old, drink all kinds of soup every day to breast-feed, otherwise there will be no milk. So when weaning, the milk rose a little for two days, and I didn't feel particularly painful.
1, Mabao should prepare a breast pump to suck out the milk in time.
Although there is not much milk in the late lactation period, there will still be milk after weaning, but I will suck it out in time and throw it away, because it will get higher and higher if I don't suck it out, and it will eventually hurt a little.
