Can I breastfeed just after taking a shower?

You can't.

Under normal circumstances, you can't breastfeed immediately after taking a shower. Just after taking a shower, the mother will produce hot milk in her body, which will easily cause physical discomfort after the baby eats it, which is not conducive to the baby's health. It is recommended to take a bath for 20-30 minutes before feeding.

Feeding precautions

1, try to feed one side first.

When feeding, let the baby eat one breast first, and then eat the other. If the baby who only eats one side is full, it is necessary to squeeze out the milk on the other side. The purpose of doing this is to prevent abdominal distension. Abdominal distension not only makes the parturient feel pain and discomfort, but also may lead to mastitis, which also reflects the reduction of lactation.

2. Pay attention to feeding posture

Don't put the baby on the bed immediately after feeding, but pick it up vertically and let its head rest on its mother's shoulder. You can also let the baby sit on the mother's lap, hold the baby's pillow and neck and back with one hand, and bend and pat the baby's back with the other hand to spit out the air swallowed into the stomach to prevent the milk from overflowing.

3, pay attention to protect the breast

If the baby falls asleep with a nipple, he has to stop sucking and gently press the baby's mouth with his mother's clean fingers to let the nipple come out of the baby's mouth. Never pull the nipple hard, so as not to hurt the nipple.

You don't need to drink water.

Breastfeeding does not require water. Breast milk contains all the nutrients your baby needs, including water and vitamins.
