I don't think it is necessary to prepare milk powder in advance for a natural delivery. Caesarean section can prepare milk powder in advance.
During my check-up, the parturient and the child explained the labor process and precautions to us in advance, which helped the parturient to relieve the pressure and tension during childbirth and increased the confidence in childbirth. At the same time, they told me not to prepare milk powder in advance, to strengthen my confidence in breastfeeding and to start breastfeeding early after delivery.
Why don't you need to prepare milk powder in advance for natural delivery;
1. You can start breastfeeding within 30 minutes after delivery.
After 37 ~ 38 weeks of pregnancy, the mammary duct should be dredged, and the first feeding can be carried out 30 minutes after delivery. Postpartum nurses will generally guide breastfeeding and breast massage and try breastfeeding for the first time. Even if there is no milk, just let the baby suck the nipple for 15~20 minutes each time.
The production of milk is controlled by the regulation of nerves and hormones. Need the baby's sucking to stimulate the nipple nerve endings, inform the brain to secrete prolactin quickly, so that milk can be secreted in large quantities.
2. The stomach capacity of the newborn is very small.
Many novice mothers find that their colostrum is very small, and their breasts don't feel bloated. They are worried that their babies will not have enough to eat.
In fact, the stomach capacity of newborns is very small, even smaller than we thought. When the newborn is born 1-2 days, the stomach is only the size of a pea and can hold 7- 13ml of milk. Doctors suggest that the baby's first sip of milk should be breast milk, because newborns are more likely to be hungry.
3. The baby has stored enough nutrition and water.
Before the newborn is born, the body has stored enough nutrition and water to maintain the mother's milk. As long as a small amount of colostrum is breastfed as soon as possible, it can meet the needs of newborn normal babies.
You can buy it at any time.
To say the least, the new mother has no colostrum on the first day after delivery and can go out to buy milk powder at any time. When I gave birth to my baby, there were more than 10 maternal and child stores next to me, which were a few hundred meters away from the hospital, which was very convenient.
If the new mother plans to have a caesarean section, it is recommended to prepare milk powder in advance. Most newborns born by caesarean section rely on artificial feeding or mixed feeding for nutrition within 3 days after birth. As time goes on, the amount of breast milk increases after 3 days, and the baby can get nutrition from his mother.
Caesarean section produces less milk than the new mother who gave birth naturally, or has a high proportion of no milk, because:
1. The new mothers who have caesarean section can't let the newborn suck their mother's nipples within 30 minutes after delivery, thus delaying the establishment of milk-producing reflex and milk-producing reflex;
2. The new mother's diet was limited before and after the operation and failed to supplement enough nutrition;
3. The incision pain of the new mother's caesarean section affects the milk secretion of the new mother, and the adrenaline produced by the pain can inhibit the milk secretion.
First of all, congratulations on seeing the baby in your belly soon. For expectant mothers who are pregnant in October, they are both excited and excited.
Near the due date, expectant mothers will prepare bags. Such as baby clothes, hats, blankets, baby wipes, diapers, baths, small towels, etc. Should be prepared; Mother's nursing bra, nursing pajamas, loose cotton underwear, impervious breast pads, moon slippers, cotton socks, postpartum sanitary napkins, toilet paper, disposable mattresses, chocolates, red bull, etc. We should be prepared so as not to find them when necessary, which will make everyone panic.
So, do you want to prepare bagged newborn milk powder?
Whether expectant mothers need to prepare newborn milk powder when they go to the hospital to give birth to their children depends on the situation. Generally speaking, there is no need to prepare newborn milk powder for natural mothers. Because a natural mother will leave the delivery room with her baby soon, at this time, the mother can let the baby suck the breast to stimulate the secretion of milk, and the first bite of the newborn should be breast milk.
Some pregnant mothers think that if their breasts don't rise, there will be no milk, so they don't suck. In fact, the newborn's stomach is very small, and a little milk is enough for the baby to eat. Moreover, there are many benefits for babies to suck their mothers' milk. First, it can increase the baby's sense of security, promote the relationship between mother and baby, and also let the baby eat the mother's colostrum early.
For caesarean section mothers, the baby is first pushed out of the delivery room by the nurse to be with other family members, and the mother will stay in the delivery room for about two hours before coming out to accompany the baby, so it is necessary to prepare bagged baby milk powder at the beginning. Because the baby always cries after coming out, when the family sees the baby crying, they usually think of giving the baby milk powder to drink. No one can bear to watch the baby cry and not give TA food.
In fact, after the baby comes out of the mother's stomach, there is still a lot of amniotic fluid and meconium in TA's stomach, which is easy to make the baby sleepy. It stands to reason that a newborn can insist on not eating or drinking for 24 hours, but no one wants to do that.
Whether to prepare bagged formula milk powder is a puzzle for many expectant mothers. On the one hand, many people, even doctors, tell new mothers that there is no milk at all after giving birth, and the baby will have no milk to eat, which will affect the baby's health; On the other hand, many parenting professionals will tell their mothers that newborns should choose breast milk at the first bite.
A few years ago, when I gave birth to Dabao, the nurse would give me more bags after giving birth. There are some milk powder and bottles in the bag, and then I tell you that if there is not enough milk to feed, these are free. This business model was not discussed. Later, because it was not allowed, the hospital basically canceled this model.
At that time, I felt that nurses were very professional and authoritative, and because they were novices, the first milk we gave our baby was formula milk powder. My family dabao was born with eczema a few days ago, and eczema is very serious. It's hard for me to chase milk myself
But with learning, I know that babies don't really need to drink formula. Breast milk can fully meet the baby's physiological needs!
When Bauer was born, I didn't prepare milk powder and successfully achieved exclusive breastfeeding. Among the mothers I serve, I have also realized the fact that the baby's first sip of milk is breast milk, and almost all of them are exclusively breast-fed. Breast-fed babies are basically much less likely to suffer from eczema.
According to my practical experience, the first two days after a mother gives birth to a baby, it is not without milk, but a small amount, but this colostrum can completely meet the nutritional needs of the baby's body.
Our breasts are ready for lactation around 16 weeks of pregnancy, so many mothers occasionally have yellow liquid or solid solidified on your nipples during pregnancy. This is not dirty, it is bovine colostrum! At this stage, due to the control of hormone levels, our milk will not overflow. Once our baby is born, the placenta falls off and progesterone drops rapidly, our breasts will begin to secrete milk. Even if we can't squeeze it out, it does exist.
The baby's stomach capacity is very small two or three days ago, and your colostrum is enough for the baby to eat!
How to realize that the baby's first bite is breast milk
First, early contact. My mother's areola smells of amniotic fluid. I will contact my mother immediately after birth. First, it can make the baby quiet, and second, it can make the baby find the mother's breasts smoothly.
Second, take it early. Babies have the strongest willingness to suck within half an hour of birth. At this time, if you can let the baby suck the breast smoothly, your breastfeeding road will be half successful.
Third, open milk early. The baby has sucked the breast, which is the first step of successful breastfeeding. In the next few days, all you need to do is breast-feed your baby, let him suck, hug him when he cries, and feed him as long as he is willing to eat (about 8- 12 times a day), each time for no less than 15 minutes.
Moreover, mothers who do this rarely have abdominal distension, and the pain of postpartum abdominal distension is also a nightmare for many mothers!
How to realize the first breast milk for caesarean section mothers
Many women who give birth naturally are more likely to start early, but how should mothers who have caesarean section breastfeed?
Many caesarean section mothers also know that the first bite of breast milk is good, but their own inexperience, combined with the pain of the wound, can not stop the persuasion of the elderly and nurses, and compromise to feed milk powder when the milk opening is not smooth, which makes the milk opening work extremely difficult in the later stage. Therefore, in the early stage of delivery, it is necessary to establish a family support network so that family members can know how to help themselves in those two days after delivery, so as to breastfeed their babies.
Generally, caesarean section mothers need to lie flat for about 6 hours after delivery. If these six hours pass, she will miss the best sucking opportunity for the baby. Half an hour to an hour after delivery, the baby wakes up and starts to sleep after a while. And the mother of caesarean section must have the help of her family to successfully realize pro-feeding.
The feeding posture of caesarean section mother must be that the family is holding the baby and the mother is lying flat, which is suitable for caesarean section mother to feed immediately after giving birth to the child. At this time, it is not a question of how much the baby eats. The key is to successfully eat the mother's nipple. Helping the mother to "milk" smoothly is also helping the baby to build a sense of security.
Half an hour to an hour after delivery is the best time to start breastfeeding. If babies are fed milk powder, they don't want to suck their mother's nipples, so they can't stimulate the production of breast milk.
Once this happens, the postpartum mother's breast milk will definitely not keep up, leading to a vicious circle of feeding milk powder-not enough milk-continuing to feed milk powder.
Within 72 hours after the baby is born, that is, three days and three nights, the nutrients stored in the body are enough! As long as the postpartum mother starts to milk as soon as possible, even if the amount is small, she should keep close contact with the baby, so as to better stimulate milk secretion. If you want to breastfeed your baby, there is no need to prepare bagged milk powder yet.
Have you just prepared milk powder for the baby's bag?
Yang Yang's father told you that as a new father, of course, you should prepare newborn milk powder.

Cesarean section must be prepared.
My wife's daughter, born on the 20th, had to have a caesarean section because the baby was delayed for a week.
Facts have proved that our choice is correct. Because the umbilical cord is around the neck, the baby can't start. If the baby gives birth naturally, the baby is in great danger.
But the next question is coming. As we all know, cesarean section needs to stay in bed for 24 hours without eating or drinking. The parturient stopped eating at 12 the night before the operation, so she would be very weak after the operation.
You can only eat if you exhaust normally. Maternal women have no energy, where can they get milk?
By the way, I found a gold medal to take care of the children and hired a milkman. I opened it for the first time on the 22nd, saying that the milk would be fine, but it didn't.
On the afternoon of 23rd, I came again and sucked out milk beads. The new moon makes pregnant women sleep well and eat whenever they can. At first, they were liquid foods to replenish the body's energy.
How has the child been recently? He lives on milk powder.
Therefore, cesarean section must buy newborn milk powder, as long as a small can is enough.

Do you need preparation for natural childbirth?
I want to say that the mother of a baby who can give birth smoothly may not always have milk for her baby that day.
People's constitutions are different. If you are very confident about your body and have milk, you don't have to buy it. If the child is crying, you can buy it temporarily.
I want to say that a small can of milk powder is around 200 yuan. Is it really necessary for children to starve? It doesn't hurt to listen to the child's crying. Anyway, I am distressed.

Suggestions on the Golden Moon Festival
Bought foreign milk powder When the child first ate, his stomach was uncomfortable and he cried for a long time.
Aunt Yue Yue said that newborns had better not buy imported milk powder. As the saying goes, it is too hard and the brewing temperature is low, generally about 40 degrees. Domestic milk powder is more suitable for China baby's physique, and the brewing temperature is about 50 degrees.
The most important thing is to buy premature infant milk powder, not newborn milk powder of 0-6 months, because the baby's stomach adapts quickly after eating it.
I don't doubt people, and I don't need to doubt people. With Yue Yue's experience and scientific knowledge, I believe she will take good care of my daughter until the full moon.
Absolutely. My wife used newborn milk powder when she gave birth to a baby. Because she didn't have milk the other day, you can't keep the baby hungry. If possible, I suggest you prepare premature milk powder, because you don't know if the baby is premature. We need to be prepared.
How long does it take to feed the baby milk powder before delivery?
This can be arranged according to your actual situation.
For example, if our pregnant women are frequently sucked by the baby and still can't meet the baby's growth needs, then we can make a transition with milk powder first. When there is more and more breast milk in Ma Bao, which can ensure the baby's growth, then we can breastfeed completely! !
How to feed the newborn with milk powder correctly?
Let me tell you how I make milk powder for my baby.
Step one:
I wash my hands with warm water first, and then dry them. Many people would suggest washing hands with soap, but I don't recommend it very much. It is inconvenient in practice, because sometimes the baby will cry when he is hungry, waiting for you to feed him milk powder, and you will not wash your hands when you are anxious. It is not good to leave soap residue.
Step two:
Take out the clean and sterilized bottle. (In general, the finished bottles should be cleaned and disinfected in time. )
Step 3:
Usually I pour warm water first, and then cold water together. What is the best temperature for soaking milk powder? It's usually about 40 degrees. I usually drop a few drops on my hand to feel it.
Step 4:
According to the instructions of milk powder, add the amount of milk powder and stir the milk powder: generally, I will hold the bottle tightly with both hands, and the speed of rolling back and forth will not be too fast, which can reduce bubbles. It is not recommended that you shake it up, down, left and right, which will produce a lot of steam drums, and the baby will be easily choked.
Little dad's conclusion: novice mothers must pay attention to that the bottle should be tilted at 45 degrees when feeding, and the nipple should be completely contained by the baby, and no air can be left in!
Better get ready.
Many novice mothers don't know what kind of bags to prepare.
In fact, the bag just yet is nothing more than what needs to be used in the hospital during the production process and a few days after delivery, including what the mother needs and what the baby needs.
Mama supplies
Clothes and other daily necessities
At least two loose, comfortable and easy-to-put pajamas or underwear; At least 4-6 pairs of cotton underwear; 2-3 bras with cotton, broadband and openable front or side; 2 pairs of cotton socks and a pair of slippers.
Breastfeeding products
Manual breast pump; Nipples protect natural oil and prevent nipple chapped pain; disinfectant wipes
goods
Face towel, foot towel, lower body towel, bath towel, three small basins, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, skin care products, maternity sanitary napkins, toilet paper and pads (prepare more).
other
Some documents, social security cards, bank cards, and tableware.
articles for babies
Baby daily necessities
Cotton diapers or diapers, cotton baby underwear, clothes, small hats, basins, covers and special washbasins for babies, small covers, small quilts for babies, and baby bottles.
infant/baby food
formula
These are things that must be prepared at once.
As for milk powder, it is best to prepare a small can of milk powder, because many novice mothers secrete very little milk one or two days before delivery, and they need the baby to open milk early and suck more to continue to secrete. Although the newborn baby's stomach capacity is also small, some mothers do secrete too little milk to meet their children's needs, so it is necessary to prepare a small pot.
If Ma Bao's breasts secrete little milk before giving birth, then let the baby suck more milk as soon as possible after giving birth. In this case, Ma Bao's own milk secretion is basically enough for the baby to eat, so there is no need to prepare milk powder.
Therefore, whether to prepare milk powder can be decided according to Ma Bao's own situation. I suggest that you'd better prepare a small pot.
It's best to prepare bagged newborn milk powder now.
Share your own experience, the broken amniotic fluid is successfully turned into a section, and the novice mother has no experience and doesn't know how to let the child breastfeed at the first time and some correct feeding methods. Let the child drink water two days ago, and the child cried on the third day. A few days before giving birth, there may be no situation, which will affect the child's breastfeeding and prepare newborn milk powder. Very necessary. Breast-feeding is advocated now, and milk powder is not the best, so we should make emergency preparations.
Do you want to prepare bagged newborn milk powder? It varies from person to person! If you have a caesarean section, you still need to prepare milk powder. If it is a natural delivery, there is no need to prepare milk powder. The reason for this is the following：
Different delivery methods, then consider whether to prepare milk powder.
1, the mother who gave birth naturally
Mothers who give birth naturally can breastfeed after umbilical cord ligation. Because a child squeezed by the birth canal has the strongest sucking ability within 2 hours of birth. In this case, there is no need to prepare milk powder. The earlier you start breastfeeding, the better you will stick to breastfeeding in the future.
2. Mothers with caesarean section and semi-anesthesia
Cesarean section needs anesthesia. If it is semi-anesthesia, the dosage of anesthetic is small. In this case, there is no need to prepare milk powder. A baby can breastfeed within 30 minutes after birth, which is similar to a baby who gives birth naturally and painlessly.
3, general anesthesia caesarean section of the mother
If it is general anesthesia by caesarean section, it is mainly through intravenous infusion, intramuscular injection, or inhalation through respiratory tract. Large anesthetic dose has little effect on the quality of fetus and breast milk. It usually takes 24 to 48 hours for the mother to completely metabolize these anesthetics, so it is necessary to prepare newborn milk powder for the baby.
While preparing milk powder, prepare a small bowl and spoon.
95% ~ 97% of mothers have adequate breast milk, and congenital breast milk deficiency is rare. Some mothers breast-feed in the wrong way, as well as postpartum depression, sulking, lack of sleep, too greasy diet, inadequate breast milk or milk obstruction caused by improper breastfeeding. Most mothers have enough breast-feeding for their babies.
Don't worry about not having breast milk for the first time after delivery. Diligence is the key. Of course, if there is really no breast milk and the baby can't be hungry, you can also feed milk powder. But don't feed it with a bottle. Feed it with a spoon. Because if the child is used to nipples, it will easily lead to nipple confusion, so it will be a bit troublesome to feed in the future.
Therefore, even if you prepare newborn milk powder for your baby, don't buy a bottle, but prepare a small bowl and spoon. General anesthesia by caesarean section, but the mother can breastfeed after 2 days.
Please consult an obstetrician before buying milk powder.
Some maternity hospitals are considerate and will prepare milk powder for newborn babies in advance. When the son was born, he could not breastfeed the child immediately because of pregnancy complications, and then the nurse sister brought a bag of newborn milk powder.
So mom had better ask your obstetrician before preparing the bag. Because some maternity hospitals will prepare just the right bags for you, including towels, bags, newborn clothes, milk powder and so on. Of course, these expenses are included in your prepaid expenses. Mom, stop buying.
Summary: Mothers who give birth naturally usually don't need to prepare newborn milk powder; Cesarean section and semi-anesthesia do not affect breastfeeding and do not need preparation. Mothers under general anesthesia by caesarean section need to prepare newborn milk powder. But before buying, you'd better consult your obstetrician in advance.
I have bought milk powder in advance before. And later feeding experience also confirmed that I prepared milk powder in advance, which is really true.
When I first gave birth to Dabao, I fainted because I was too weak and lacked qi and blood. It has been more than five hours since I woke up. My husband takes care of me and my mother-in-law takes care of the baby. Fortunately, the milk powder was prepared in advance, and the baby was not hungry at all. Because of the inexperience of the first child, the mammary glands didn't clear so quickly, so even if I woke up and let the baby suck immediately after eating, the amount of milk was still not much, not enough for the baby to eat. Therefore, in the first week after delivery, breast milk and milk powder are mixed, and breast milk is fed first and then milk powder is fed. After discharge, the nipple was bitten by the baby, and the pain was unbearable. The baby cried and ate milk powder for a while. It was not until the wound healed that he began to breastfeed exclusively.
Still have to prepare.
First, baby products
1, tissue.
2. Small towel.
3. cotton blanket.
4, small plastic basin (for baby to wash pp).
5, a small number of disposable diapers (the hospital changed three times a day). Now the hospital will change the baby's diaper, and we change it every six hours here. But sisters, the baby's tires are very impressive. He won't wait six hours to pull them once, so it is necessary to prepare some diapers in advance.
6, formula milk: the mother who gave birth naturally will be born one day later, and the mother who gave birth by caesarean section will take three days, so formula milk should be given first these days.
7. Talcum powder.
8. A clean suit.
It's not easy for a newborn to wear khaki, but a two-piece suit will be better. It's a monk's clothes and a belt on his pants. This will not make the baby uncomfortable, and don't let the baby wear belly pants when he is too young.
9. Hugging quilt (for discharging)
Others: nail clippers, cotton swabs, baby buttock cream (the hospital provides bath and bath products, and 2 bibs for feeding).
Multi-dimensional glucose powder: it is sold in pharmacies. Feeding glucose water can help jaundice subside and bask in the sun.
Wash your hair with water only in the first two weeks, and use shampoo once a week from the third week.
Medical supplies: one bottle of 75% alcohol, words deleted.
Second, mother's supplies.
1 breast pump
2. Several impervious chest pads
3, postpartum girding
4, plastic bottles (preferably with nozzles) pregnant women clean the wound after each toilet, it is best to let the wound dry naturally or dry it with a clean and soft cotton towel.
5, clothing related
Three nursing bras, 1 box of anti-galactorrhea pads (disposable), and several sterile gauze pads, and clean the breasts when feeding.
A clean suit and a hat (for retirement)
A pair of slippers with heels, underwear (6 pairs, pajamas provided by the hospital), 3 pairs of cotton socks,
Disposable cotton underwear (men's XXL) is dirty, and then throw away men's larger pants, which are easy to get dirty or postpartum care pants.
Four pairs of pure cotton underwear (worn during pregnancy, and may not be able to wear a small size just after giving birth) and two sets of pajamas.
6. Cleaning utensils
The rubber band and small hairpin for tying hair depend on everyone's hair. Mm with long hair must be needed.
Toothbrush (you can put the toothbrush in boiling water or wrap it on your fingers with clean gauze before use, and brush your teeth directly with toothpaste. Pay attention to brushing your teeth with warm water after delivery); The hospital provides toothpaste and soap (toiletries and slippers, which are similar to those in hotels, but not suitable for use. Family members accompanied by hospital beds are used in hospitals, and pregnant women bring them themselves); Wide-toothed comb, slippers,
1 Pack of adult diapers, 2 packs of postpartum sanitary napkins, and Mama Lehe Night Sanitary napkins.
Diaper pads, roll paper, a pack of facial tissues, and some feminine wipes.
Seven towels and two small square towels are used to compress breasts, wash face 1, wash feet 1, and wash lower body 1. Prepare two small square towels to wipe the sweat, which is very practical.
Clothes hangers (I also prepared an 8-corner shelf), scrubbed towels, and some small clips (for drying gauze).
Disposable toilet seat cushion
Three plastic basins (for washing face, lower body and feet) and six towels (for postpartum hot compress).
Third, document preparation.
1. pregnant women's handbook, self-filling medicine production from my experience, it shows that you must pay attention to preparing milk powder in advance when you just prepare the bag. The reason for this is the following：
1. Prepare milk powder in advance and have enough time to choose milk powder. During pregnancy, Ma Baobao has more free time. After giving birth, he has to take care of the baby, so time is not enough. Therefore, Ma Bao can choose milk powder in advance during pregnancy, and the quality is relatively guaranteed. Ma Bao, whose economic situation is average, can choose to buy experience clothes or small cans of milk powder when doing activities. These experience packs or small cans of milk powder are generally the same quality as large cans. Ma Bao can buy it with confidence, but you must remember to buy 1 piece of milk powder, and don't buy milk powder for your baby regardless of age.
2. Preparing milk powder in advance will not cause maternal anxiety and affect maternal production and rest. When Ma Bao gives birth, she will worry that baggs is not ready. Preparing more things that need to be used can alleviate the anxiety of the parturient and will not affect the rest of the parturient because the baby is hungry and wants to eat.
3. After preparing milk powder in advance, Ma Bao won't worry too much about breastfeeding. Many treasure mothers can't wait to open milk to feed their babies when they see their starving newborns. It's not that easy to dredge breasts. The more anxious Ma Bao is, the easier it is to return to the milk. The breast is not easy to dredge or easily blocked.
Therefore, it is necessary to prepare milk powder in advance. However, when buying milk powder, we should pay attention to the regular store purchase and try to choose small cans of milk powder of big brands. It is suggested that Ma Bao prepare about one month before the due date. Milk powder has a shelf life. If you buy it too early, the quality of milk powder will easily decline. Also note that milk powder should be stored in a cool place and not exposed to the sun.
There is no doubt that this must be prepared.
I tell you from the experience of two children that preparation is really necessary. I didn't understand it when I was pregnant, but my mother-in-law told me that if the milk didn't come down when I was born, I would starve the baby, so my husband and I went to the maternal and infant store to buy milk powder one month before the expected date of delivery, and then the clerk told us that we could take the birth inspection form to get a sample of milk powder, and then prepared a small box of milk powder for her. Give it to the baby at birth.
Maternal women do not secrete milk when their children are born. Even if there is milk, it is not enough for the baby to eat, so after the child is born, give the baby some milk powder and suck more nipples. Of course, there are also some baby mothers who give birth quickly. But most of them need two or three days to get milk, and some even need a week.
Therefore, before the baby is born, it is necessary to prepare rations, bottle cups and spoons suitable for the baby.
