How long does it take to have breast milk after a normal birth?

It is not that a woman's breasts will produce milk immediately after giving birth. Instead, it is the changes in hormones in the body within a period of time after giving birth that will cause a woman's breasts to produce milk. Breast milk is an important source of nutrition for the baby's body. Therefore, in the eyes of parents, mother's breast milk is very important to the baby. So if a woman chooses to give birth naturally, how long will it take for her to produce breast milk?

How long does it take to produce milk during normal delivery?

1. It depends on individual circumstances. Generally, women who give birth normally, that is, women who give birth naturally, will secrete milk 1-3 days after giving birth, because the process of giving birth is conducive to the secretion of milk after delivery.

2. Mothers who give birth naturally should breastfeed their babies half an hour after birth, because the baby's sucking ability is the strongest half an hour after birth. At this time, the baby's strong sucking on the mother's nipple can effectively clear the mammary glands.

Pay special attention not to blow air directly into the air conditioner. In addition, avoid contact with cold water during the confinement period. In late autumn, add clothes in time and try to wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants. If you catch a cold during the confinement period, it will affect the mother's physical recovery and make her prone to rheumatism and other postpartum diseases.
