Tips for new parents: problems with breastfeeding

We continue with our tips for new parents and today we are going to talk about the possible problems that may be encountered regarding breastfeeding.

Causes of breastfeeding problems

My advice would be that, before giving artificial milk for problems in breastfeeding, we seek good specialized advice and that we form and inform ourselves.

This is our son and the ultimate responsibility is ours, we seek help if there are problems and we do not stay with a first assessment if it is not fully grounded, we already know that pediatricians are not lactation consultants and do not always succeed with their tips.

most of breastfeeding problems can be overcome with a good guide And, lastly, we can offer mixed breastfeeding or artificial milk with a supplementer that allows the baby to maintain contact with the breast. These efforts will be worthwhile, whatever the outcome, and many times they will even get a relationship despite the initial difficulties.

Separation and interference in natural processes

An intervened birth or a C-section, the separation of mother and baby, the one that has been offered a bottle or blood serum or the one that has not favored cohabitation from the first day are quite frequent causes of a bad start of breastfeeding.

Actually, any interference, necessary or unnecessaryIn the natural process it can create problems with breastfeeding because the baby for what is programmed is to be born vaginally, without medication or hurry, recognize his mother and breastfeed as soon as he is born.

That does not mean that breastfeeding is not possible with a C-section, but it is true that there are additional discomforts and it can interfere. But be clear, with the cesarean section you can breastfeed perfectly and there are solutions for problems that may exist, starting with practicing skin to skin as soon as possible.

You can also breastfeed twins and premature children, underweight or with Down syndrome, but we may require help and understanding. You can breastfeed with mastitis, babes with bridle and overcoming cracks. Therefore, as we will see tomorrow, a basic advice on breastfeeding for new parents is to approach and meet the breastfeeding support group closest to your home. It is very important and can be fundamental.
