What should I do if the postpartum milk is insufficient? Give Ma Bao two TCM methods.

It is estimated that mothers who have given birth to children enjoy the wonderful time when the fleshy little guy snuggles up to his chest and breastfeeds. You look at the little meat ball in your arms quietly and serenely, and she sucks milk greedily and happily. At that moment, we ignored any secular prejudice and external interference, and just enjoyed the greatness and pride of being a mother calmly.

But! But! There are also many mothers who blame themselves and feel anxious because of the lack of postpartum milk secretion and the baby crying.

Mom is short of milk! Or the postpartum milk is unreasonable, and it often happens that the baby starts crying after eating a few mouthfuls. When children cry when they are hungry, mothers are very anxious, and sometimes tears can disappoint people. So I tried my best to supplement all kinds of broth, such as pig's trotters, peanut's trotters, pangolin scales, cowherb seeds, passepartout, medulla tetrapanacis and so on, but many mothers used different methods and the effect was not great.

In the face of milk shortage, don't forget that Chinese medicine in China is really powerful!

Method 1: Massage acupoints.

According to the law of meridians passing through indications, today I will focus on two very important acupoints, Ruzhong acupoint and Rugen acupoint.

Breast point, in the fourth intercostal space of the chest, the center of nipple, 4 inches from the anterior midline. This point does not need acupuncture, but only serves as a standard for selecting and positioning points in the chest.

Rugen point, in the chest, when the nipple is straight down, at the root of the breast, between the fifth ribs, 4 inches away from the front midline. Oblique stab 0.5-0.8 inch during operation.

In massage milk, milk roots can help lactating mothers solve the problem of less milk! Of course, they can not only treat lung diseases such as cough, chest tightness and chest pain, but also treat breast diseases such as mastitis, especially postpartum hypogalactia.

My best friend didn't have enough milk before, and the prolactin doctors who went to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital helped her to dredge her breasts by massaging them around the "breasts, breast roots". For about twenty minutes, the milk rushed in all directions like a water gun. At that time, my good girlfriend was so happy that she finally saw the sunshine in the foggy weather for many days! Her children finally have food to eat!

After returning home, she often massages the two acupoints of breast milk and breast root for about 3-5 minutes each time! The child never cries because he doesn't have enough to eat.

Method 2: Chinese medicine therapy

To share with you a folk Chinese medicine prescription, it can be said that five days can basically solve the big problem of insufficient milk!

Traditional Chinese Medicine Prescription: Xionggui Tiaoxue Decoction

Xionggui Tiaoxue Drink comes from Puerperal Door of Rejuvenation of All Diseases, and its main functions are as follows: "After parturition of all diseases, deficiency of qi and blood, weakness of spleen and stomach, lochia, excessive bleeding, improper diet, or mutual anger, resulting in fever, aversion to cold, spontaneous sweating, dry mouth, anxiety, chest pain, hypochondriac fullness, dizziness, tinnitus and nausea.

This article looks as if many diseases can be cured, and its treatment goal is not as clear as we distinguish and imagine. In the explanation of clinical application of TCM prescriptions, it is said that Japanese people are mainly used to remove postpartum lochia, and their main functions are to restore vitality, promote milk secretion and prevent postpartum depression.

Xionggui Tiaoxue Decoction has a good effect on "postpartum abdomen is as soft as cotton, abdomen is loose, abdomen is as soft as cotton pillow ..." People with this symptom have insufficient milk. People with deficiency of both qi and blood have stagnation of liver qi. It is very effective to use this prescription.

What are the ingredients of Xionggui Tiaoxue Drink?

Composition formula:

Xionggui Yidi: Chuanxiong 6, Angelica sinensis 10, Radix Rehmanniae 10, Motherwort 10, and Cortex Moutan 6;

Lingzhu Wuling skin: Poria 10, Atractylodes macrocephala 15, Linderae 10 (or 6), Cyperus rotundus 6 and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae 6.

Accessories: licorice 6, ginger 6, jujube10;

Xiongguiyidi, Ligusticum Chuanxiong, Angelica sinensis, Motherwort, Rehmannia glutinosa and Cortex Moutan. These five flavors all enter the blood, so that the blood can be regulated;

Lingzhu Wuling Cortex, Poria, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Linderae Radix, Rhizoma Cyperi and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae. The following Lindera root, Cyperus rotundus and dried tangerine peel are qi-regulating. What about Poria cocos and Atractylodes macrocephala? They have the effect of strengthening the spleen. I think they have the function of invigorating qi, so these five drugs are all qi-regulating.

Then adding licorice, ginger and jujube; Just like the condiments we often put in cooking, in this way, Xiong Guidi, Lingshu Five Blessingg Peel and Ganjiang Jujube were all recorded. This herb is very good for promoting milk secretion, and people with insufficient milk can eat it. ...

This is our usual dose. In this relatively small dosage range, one dose of medicine is boiled twice and drunk. Actually, it's not much. After eating for five days, the milk basically came.

Decocting method of Xionggui Tiaoxue drink

It should be emphasized that this recipe is "only cook once, only cook once"! Why do you emphasize this?

Because this prescription contains volatile oil, such as Chuanxiong, Linderae, Cyperus rotundus, etc., these drugs all contain volatile oil, so the decoction time should not be too long. If the decoction time is too long and the volatile oil is gone, this prescription will not achieve the effect. If boiled for too long, only warm medicine is left in it, then this medicine will become warm and toxic, and it is easy to produce side effects.

The method of decoction is to soak the medicinal materials in two and a half bowls or three bowls of water for one or two hours, then boil them with strong fire and turn to low heat 15 to 20 minutes. Just pour two bowls, one in the morning and one at noon. Remember to wrap the remaining bowls in plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator. Take it out at noon and drink another bowl after boiling water.

It's not everything for men to drink blood.

For mothers who will go to work after breastfeeding for several months, there is a problem of insufficient milk, which is difficult to make up with drugs. Mothers can only stay at home, rest, take medicine, do light exercise ... in order to keep enough milk.

Because working mothers have to use their brains and are tired, then you can't raise milk, because milk needs rest and belongs to yin blood; Mother wants to rest in order to nourish yin, so once she goes to work, her brain becomes active and she keeps exercising on the way to and from work, so her mother is not in a state of rest, and the milk is naturally insufficient.
