Good day mothers in motherhood Community. It is Saturday morning and am happy and healthy. I just finished sanitation in the compound with my children. Am sure your weekend is going as you planned. It is good to share this good news with you mother's because many mothers do experience this after delivery. This in turn has effected their babies in a nagative way.

I shared this information with a mother i visited last month. And i decided to bring it up today. Let me show you my picture with the baby for more understanding of the bad effect of low breast milk production.

This baby is 4 months already

You can see that the baby is not healthy and his growth was affected. This is her second child. She was troubled not knowing what to do. According to her, she went to health center and some vitamins was given to her but still no good result. She started feeding the baby with water and baby food but the baby do not really love to eat those things. She became more confused. So when i visited, she told me all her worries, i asked her some important question which she gave me answer, i now shared this 5 ways to increase breast milk production with her.

5 way to increase breast milk production.

  • Breastfeed the baby regularly: It is important to breast feed the baby regularly weather the milk is coming out or not. Let the babies body be on your body while breastfeeding him. (Skin to skin) Pump the breast while breastfeeding him. It is not good to remove his mouth, no, allow the baby to suck the breast until he is satisfied. Remember it is the babies work to draw the milk out so feeding him regularly is one way to achieve that. make sure you breastfeed him the 2 breast always.

  • Eat healthy food:You must eat a healthy food. Green Vegetables like spinach is very good. If you are able to see alfalfa, it is a good source of multivitamins. Calcium is good too. You can also supplement your food with supplement.

  • Drink plenty of water daily: drinking alkaline water regularly will help in production of breast milk. Our body is made of 55% for women of water, so during this period, a mother may lack some water percentage that is why to drink more water daily is essential.

  • Do not stay hungry: On no account should breastfeeding mother stay hungry. Although we can not say eat this or that but the truth is that you need to eat healthy food often.the food you eat is divided in so many ways so if you don't eat well, there is that tendency that the breast milk will be affected.

  • massage the breast always: It is encouraging to massage the breast from time to time. You will do that using warm water. You can drink a cup of hot tea while doing this or warm water. Warm or hot water has power over nerves so it can help breast milk production.

    I believe that is working very well because when I had my first Son, breast massage with hot water was one of the first thing my mother thought me. It reduces pain on the nipples, and at the same time helps the breast milk to start flowing from day one. So till today many mothers from my side are still doing it and the case of no breast milk is not much.

    Any good result as she started it.

    I was happy when the husband called me yesterday to tell me that their baby has bounce back. His wife breast milk is flowing now. The wife was happy too and she said may God grant you your heart desires madam Uzomah. I gave God the glory because he is the that did the work for them not me. What is it that i have that i did not receive.

    Conclusion

    Motherhood comes with different Challenges. As a mother, be ready to learn every day and do not fail to share what you know with you g mother's as they, sometimes are confused on what to do. As a mother, feel free to ask your doctor, matured mother's questions about what you don't know because through their experiences, they can help you.

    Thank you for reading. Remain blessed.
