My wife unable to motherfeeding in ou child due to poor milk.Kindly give your suggestion?

Answer 1

I have no idea what you are asking. Are you saying your wife is having trouble breastfeeding? If so, please call La Leche League or some other lactation consultant. The hospital should be able to provide you with a list. Breastfeeding isn't always easy, and doesn't always come naturally. Some women need the help of a good lactation consultant!

Answer 2

No such thing as "poor" milk. As long as your wife drinks enough fluids and eats healthy and does not do drugs or anything her milk is just right. If you are talking about colostrum and her milk not coming in, mine took 5 days to come in. It is tough work but if you want to breastfeed you need to keep feeding your baby sometimes an hour at a time or pump your breasts, after your milk comes in everything should be fine. Go see your doctor or a doctor for more information, they will be glad to help you out.

Answer 3

I can empathise with your wife. She probably wants to do this for the good of the baby but for some reason her body is not capable of producing enough milk. I had this trouble too. The situation was not improved with lactation specialists either. I finally had to give in to the formula situation and have a happy and very healthy 11 yr old son. The best you can do for her is to encourage her to try formula and be supportive no matter what her choice is. She is probably going to feel guilty because everyone else is telling her that she is not doing what is best for her baby. How ever you two choose to feed your little one is what will be best for you.
Good luck.

Answer 4

I am quite confident that your wife can breastfeed with the right support, she needs a qualified lactation consultant. There is no such thing as "poor" breastmilk.

"Effects of alcohol on breastfeeding and the breastfed baby

* Alcohol does not increase milk production. In fact, babies nurse more frequently but take in less milk in the 3-4 hours after mom has had a drink, and one study showed a 23% decrease in milk volume with one drink (Mennella & Beauchamp 1991, 1993; Mennella 1997, 1999).
* 2+ drinks may inhibit let-down (Coiro et al 1992; Cobo 1974).
* One study showed changes in the infant's sleep-wake patterning after short-term exposure to small amounts of alcohol in breastmilk -- infants whose mothers were light drinkers slept less (Mennella & Gerrish 1998).
* Daily consumption of alcohol has been shown in the research to increase the risk for slow weight gain in the infant.
* Daily consumption of alcohol (1+ drinks daily) has been associated with a decrease in gross motor development (Little et al 1989).

Answer 5

Also keep in mind that breastfeeding isnt always for everyone mother. sometimes it just doesnt work for you. I have the worst trouble breastfeeding, I would pump and pump and nothing. Then my milk started going into my armpits which is very painful.

Answer 6

Please have her call a lactaction consultant. You can call the hospital where she delivered the baby. She may just need to use a breast pump to increase her milk supply or she may need help getting the baby latched on.
Dont give up-its well worth it!

if she pumps for 30 mins on each breasts, it will trigger her brain to produce more. Whatever you pump out, if it is not enough, mix it with formula.
