People often say that "breast milk is the best gift for mothers to newborns." Indeed, medical research has also found that breast milk is rich in protein and antibody elements, which can better promote infant brain development and improve thinking and cognitive abilities. At the same time, it can enhance the baby's resistance, effectively prevent bacterial infections, calcium deficiency, colds and other diseases, and even greatly reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome, leukemia, diabetes, etc. Therefore, most experts recommend that it is best for mothers to breastfeed their babies exclusively for more than 6 months.

However, the latest data released in 2019 show that the rate of exclusive breastfeeding in my country is only 29.2%. This data is unavoidably shocking: Since breastfeeding has so many benefits, why is the breastfeeding rate so low?

"I have been breastfeeding for more than 5 months, during which there were various episodes of anxiety, irritability and pain~"

"Work is too busy and there is no time. After the son was born, he gritted his teeth and went to work. He couldn't breastfeed. In fact, I felt very sad."

"It's not that I don't want to breastfeed, it's just that I don't know how to do it. Mastitis, dizziness, joint pain, and other physical pain are very difficult.

...

Through the interactions of many mothers on the Internet, we discovered that there are too many reasons behind the low breastfeeding rate, but the key reason that cannot be avoided is that breastfeeding makes young mothers suffer physical and mental pain! What makes mothers feel "pain"? How to improve these problems?

Medical professionals pointed out that from the perspective of objective environmental factors, the current social conditions do not give young "working mothers" more room for breastfeeding. The data survey found that 86% of mothers with paid maternity leave can take maternity leave for less than 6 months. At the same time, workplace facilities cannot meet the needs of breastfeeding. In this way, even young mothers feel "sad about not being able to breastfeed." ", I can only helplessly make a choice.

However, the more critical reason why breastfeeding makes mothers "pain" lies in the physiological changes. "After giving birth, women’s breasts begin to secrete milk, but blockage and mastitis are really common. This kind of'torture' is no less than the pain during childbirth. In addition, during breastfeeding, the baby sometimes bites the nipple and worsens the nipple crack ,pain."

In addition, the relevant medical person also explained that “if mothers often experience dizziness, numbness or cramps in their legs during breastfeeding, and sometimes feel repeated joint pain, or even symptoms of anemia, this may be caused by calcium deficiency. which performed."

As mentioned earlier, mothers secrete milk after giving birth, and the body is also undergoing a metabolic process. Since the bones are composed of dry matter, the calcium in the body also participates in the metabolic cycle, which will accelerate the loss of calcium; in addition, When mothers breastfeed their children, all kinds of calcium in their bodies will also be lost again with the milk, which can easily cause joint pain, edema, dizziness or anemia.

It can be seen that although many young women do a lot of calcium supplementation during pregnancy, they still have calcium deficiency due to physiological changes during breastfeeding. If calcium supplementation is done in time, it can effectively alleviate physical pain. Symptoms, so as to better adhere to breastfeeding, so that adults and children are healthy and relaxed.

During breastfeeding, young mothers can actually get more exposure to the sun and supplement vitamin D that promotes calcium absorption. In addition, mothers can increase calcium intake and vitamins through supplements, drink more milk, such as eating some soy products, Milk soup made from pig's trotters, carp, eggs, dried shrimps, vegetables and other raw materials to supplement calcium.

If food and activities cannot meet the calcium intake, it will result in less milk secretion, and the baby’s food will not be guaranteed, and the baby’s resistance will also decrease. Therefore, breastfeeding mothers can also choose some safe and easily absorbed calcium Quality agent products to supplement calcium!

For example, Langdi Pregnancy Calcium Acid D3 Granules have high safety and are produced according to "FDA and CFDA double standard characters". Pregnant mothers can use them with confidence. Rondy Calcium not only contains 500mg of elemental calcium, which satisfies the body's absorption of calcium, but also contains 200IU of vitamin D3, which promotes calcium to be better absorbed by the body. In addition, Rondy Calcium uses a fresh and light fruit flavor, which effectively reduces the morning sickness of pregnant mothers; a small dose of mannitol is added to it, which can promote the digestion of pregnant mothers and prevent constipation. It is a safe choice for many mothers to supplement calcium.

Rondy Calcium also reminds the majority of pregnant mothers that the overall pregnancy period can be divided into three stages, and the corresponding calcium requirements are:

During the first trimester, the mother provides an average of 25 mg of calcium per day to the fetus

In the second trimester, the mother provides an average of 150 mg of calcium to the fetus every day

During the third trimester, the mother provides 350mg of calcium to the fetus every day on average

As the fetus grows up, the calcium content that the mother needs to provide to the fetus also gradually rises. Therefore, in order to meet the growth needs of the fetus and ensure the health of the mother, we must pay attention to calcium supplementation for pregnant women.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that insisting on breastfeeding also has many benefits for new mothers, such as promoting postpartum weight loss, reducing the incidence of female reproductive system cancers such as ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and endometrial cancer, which are beneficial to health.
