What's the reason for thin milk

summary

After the full moon, many breast-feeding mothers will find that the color of their milk is relatively white. It looks thin and light, as if it is not as "thick" as milk. Some mothers will worry about their milk problems, lack of nutrition, and the baby will not have enough to eat. In fact, for the vast majority of mummies, this worry is superfluous, mainly because the mature breast milk protein and fat particles are small, not poor nutrition. Compared with milk and formula milk, it contains nutrients and proportion, disease resistance factors are incomparable to the former. Next, let's talk about the causes of this disease, and hope you can prevent it early.

What's the reason for thin milk

First, pay attention to the intake of calcium and vitamin D. If the lactating mother is short of calcium, in order to ensure the constant calcium content in the milk, it is necessary to use the bone calcium of the lactating mother itself, which will cause bone softening, osteoporosis, waist and leg pain of the lactating mother.

Second: in addition to the low content of calcium, the low content of fat, zinc and DHA will cause milk thinning, so we should increase the amount of edible oil, nuts, butter, animal fat, sea fish, etc. to promote the baby's brain development and retinal formation, and improve immunity.

Third: the usual partial diet, especially vegetarian Mommy, if the nutrients are not comprehensive enough, it will have a negative impact on the baby's nutrition, and also form milk thin.

matters needing attention

When the baby is sucking, the milk that comes out in the first two or three minutes is relatively thin and contains more water. It can provide rich water, protein, lactose, vitamins, inorganic salts and water for the baby, as well as immunoglobulin with anti-cancer ability. The latter half of the milk will be relatively thick, contains more fat, looks whiter than before. In breast-feeding, it can provide a lot of calories for the baby, which is conducive to all aspects of growth. This is what we often call "front milk" and "back milk".
