There are instances when it comes to mothers who have their first child, that they only realize the advices from doctors in breastfeeding when they actually start doing it. This is still regarded as the best means in nurturing the baby. This is also the joy for mothers and their moment to bond with their babies.
There are many challenges that mothers undergo from conception to nurturing the babies. The overwhelming responsibility and work makes them risky to have most of the common breastfeeding problems. Although it is only natural that the doctors would be there to help as well as the family, but it is much better that the mother know themselves what to do in case of these problems.
There are latching pains that may happen for the mother. This is either caused by incorrect positioning of the mouth or by some other underlying causes. First, you need to remove the latch by sliding one finger and letting the baby release the latch. You can either wait for them to yawn or tickle their chins so you can reposition and have them latch again.
Cracked nipples could be a sign from improper pumping, latching problems, dry skin, and thrush. You can initially try the removal and repositioning for a couple of times to lessen this. Also, you can use the milk to heal the cracked areas and let it air dry. Never use products in the house aside from water or the milk for moisturization of the nipples.
If the ducts are clogged and then if there is also a feeling of feverish temperature and aching breasts, then it could be a sign of an infection. But if it is only a bearable sore and redness, you can do some warm compress to ease the pain. Also, massaging it gently would let the milk flow better as well.
Lactation of the breasts would sometimes end up too much and the baby would find it difficult to latch onto it. What you can do about this is to hand express first the breast and until it becomes soft, you can then let the baby latch to it. Nursing frequently would make the engorging to be less often.
There are cases when the breast is infected with bacteria, which causes Mastitis. It gives pains on the breast and accompanied with fever, too. The way to solve this is by taking in antibiotics, applying hot compression, and let the milk be expressed frequently.
Thrush is an infection caused by yeast or fungi. It is found first around the mouth of your baby which spreads to yours breasts eventually. It creates rash, soreness, and itchiness and you can ask your doctor on which anti fungal remedies you can get. Treat both the baby and your breast so that it heals at the same time.
It is normal to have a prickly needle like sensation when feeding. But if this lasts for a longer amount of time and the sensation becomes like a thousand needles poking at your breast, then this is an indication of an infection. Get the necessary medicines and remedies from your doctor when this happens.
