The birth of the kid - it is always fine. But soon after this happy event before young mom there can be a serious question: how it is correct to feed the child?
The first what young mom faces - it is feeding of the kid. Certainly, all want the best for the child and try to nurse, but what to do if there is catastrophically not enough milk? Moreover grandmothers unanimously go on: you have not dairy breed, milk blue, liquid, a riparian forest breast, transfer to mix. The qualified doctors authoritatively say: not dairy mothers are not, happen lazy, not ready to fight for breastfeeding.
Completely on mix or …
It is better not to hurry to transfer the kid to the adapted mixes if, of course, it is not necessary on medical indications, for example at the conflict on a blood type. But also to starve the child if for any reasons of milk is not enough, it is not necessary.
Optimal variant – competently organized mixed feeding. The correct organization will help you to keep breast milk, not to leave the child hungry and further to return to natural feeding. It means that it is necessary to put as often as possible the child to a breast and if necessary to finish feeding mix, over time these supplementary feeding will be less and less. Such feedings are most often used at a small set of weight at the child if the child premature if mom takes any medicine incompatible with breastfeeding, or mom needs to leave for a while on work or study.
The mixed feeding – a direct way to artificial?
It is the myth. Everything depends on what aims are pursued at a supplementary feeding by mix. If mix makes no more than 30% of daily food of the child, and all rest of the time it is put to a breast, then development of milk at mom does not stop, and each time increases, and finally it will be possible to refuse mix. Young mothers are very hypochondriac therefore they very often begin to feed the child with the adapted mix without the reasons seen on that. Below the facts which are not the reasons for mix addition will be given: - concern of the child near a breast, most likely he just gorged on or he is disturbed by a tummy; - the breast is not filled, at the mature established lactation milk comes directly to feeding time; - control weighing showed that the child ate a little. When feeding on demand this method is not informative; Before entering the adapted mix into the child's diet, address the consultant for establishing breastfeeding, perhaps, mix also is not required to you.
