 After the birth of a child, any mother should think about her nutrition. After all, everyone has long known that both useful and harmful substances are transmitted to the baby with mother's milk. At the time of breastfeeding, it is worth forgetting about the products that provoke allergies in the child. For example, citrus fruits, red apples, carrots, chocolate and more. Many can say that any product, if its properties are better studied, is not advisable to be eaten by a nursing mother. But this is far from the case. After all, if the nutrition of a mother who is breastfeeding is not varied, this can harm the body of the mother and child.
Several nutritional rules
1. Calorie content
A mother's diet inherently affects the quality of breast milk. A woman who is breastfeeding should eat more calories. In addition to the fact that a woman must provide her body with nutrients, she also needs to take care of her child's body.
2. Mode
It is best to eat according to the regimen. In small portions several times a day, but under no circumstances overeat. Before feeding the child, it is recommended that the mother have a snack. This breast milk can produce more.
3. Variety in food
The nutrition of a mother who is breastfeeding must necessarily be varied. In no case should you follow different diets. After all, then the content of nutrients, carbohydrates, proteins and vitamins in the mother's milk will decrease, which will affect the child's body in the worst way. Subsequently, the child will simply refuse mother's milk and will have to feed the baby with artificial formulas.
TIt is also recommended that you introduce new foods into your mom's diet gradually. This is necessary in order to track the reaction of the baby's body to this or that product. This is especially true for products such as cucumbers, cabbage. They cause gas formation, which will provoke colic in the baby.
4. Water is an important product in the diet of a nursing mother.
Water plays a special role not only in the life of a nursing mother, but also in any person. If a common person should drink up to two liters of water a day, then a woman who is breastfeeding should drink about three liters of plain, clean water without gases. The more water the mother drinks, the more milk she will produce.
Must-have foods for women who are breastfeeding
Be sure to eat boiled meat (lean) - chicken fillet or turkey (skinless), veal. Also, you should include in the diet of boiled low-fat fish and dairy products.
In order for the body of mother and child to receive as many vitamins as possible, you should eat fruits and vegetables.
Foods not recommended for the diet
No matter how much you love fried, salty, smoked and fatty, you will have to give up all this for the period of breastfeeding. You should also forget about all kinds of canned food and pickles. You shouldn't eat foods that cause stomach fermentation. These include sugar, sweets and grapes. Chocolate, Strawberry, tropical fruits and seafood can cause severe allergies in your baby. They should also be discarded.
What to drink for a nursing mother
As mentioned earlier, the main drink is plain clean water without gases. You should refuse juices. Well, or at least know what you can drink and what not, since most of them cause allergies.
Alcohol is contraindicated for a nursing mother. Also strong tea and coffee.
Here are some rules for following the diet of a nursing mother. Eat right, then you and your baby will be healthy.
