After giving birth to a baby, the baby's food is the top priority. During the confinement period, you can eat more tomatoes, carrots, peanuts, yam and other vegetables, as well as chicken, fish and other meats and some beans, which are all helpful for milk production. If there is not much milk, you can drink more soup, but it is best to remove the layer of oil on the top when drinking. If there is too much milk and the baby cannot finish it, you can drink less soup. What are the foods that promote milk production? 1. Vegetables and fruits - cabbage, tomatoes, carrots, bok choy, pounded rice, germ rice, peanuts, beans, and yam. 2. Meat - chicken, fish, lean meat, eggs. To increase protein intake, it is best if more than half of the food is animal protein. 3. Others - milk, soy milk, hot milk tea, cheese, kelp sprouts, black bean water, black sesame powder. What is the best way to increase milk production during the confinement period? 1. Eat more protein: Protein is an important factor in tissue repair, so you should increase your protein intake, especially some animal protein. Lean meat, milk, and eggs have relatively high protein content. However, rice, tofu, and flour also contain a lot of protein. Pregnant women can reasonably combine animal and plant proteins according to their preferences. 2. Reduce fat intake: When eating pig's feet, ribs, and chicken soup, you should remove the floating oil on the surface and drink more soup to promote milk secretion. If a pregnant woman has breast engorgement, she should drink less soup. 3. Reasonable food combination: During the confinement period, you should have a reasonable food combination and avoid overeating. The staple food should be diversified, and coarse and fine grains should be eaten together. However, due to poor appetite in the first few days after delivery, liquid food is generally the main food. After delivery, you should eat more vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamins and dietary fiber. Avoid eating sour, spicy, raw or cold foods, and eat less sweets. Eating too much sweets will affect your normal appetite. What to eat during confinement to produce milk? 1. Tongcao pig's trotter lactation-promoting soup: first wash the pig's trotters, scrape off the fur, put them in a casserole together with the tongcao, add 1.5 kg of water and cook into soup. Use high heat first, then change to low heat after the water boils, and cook for 1-2 hours. Drink twice a day for 3-5 consecutive days. Pig's trotters are rich in protein and fat, and have a strong effect of nourishing blood and activating blood circulation. Tongcao can promote diuresis and lactation. Eating them together not only has a good effect on lactation, but also can promote the speedy recovery of the mother. 2. Pig's trotter and daylily soup: Soak the daylily in warm water for half an hour, remove the stems, wash with new water, cut into small pieces and set aside. Wash the pig's trotters, chop them into small pieces with a knife, put them into a casserole, add appropriate amount of water, boil them over high heat, add day lily and rock sugar, and simmer them over low heat until the pig's trotters are tender and ready to eat. This soup has the effects of nourishing blood and producing sperm, strengthening bones and promoting milk secretion, and has a good promoting effect on the secretion of milk in postpartum women. 3. Pork bone lactation soup: first wash the pork bones and put them in a pot with clean water, then cook them in the pot with tongcao for 1-2 hours until it becomes a small bowl of pork bone soup, then add a little soy sauce. Drink it all at once and continue for 3-5 days. Pig bones have the effects of replenishing qi, blood and producing milk. When added with tongcao, the lactation effect is even stronger. |
