After pregnancy, the breasts of pregnant women may slightly swell and even be able to express milk, which is a preparation for breastfeeding the baby after delivery. However, pregnant women will consume a lot of physical energy after giving birth, so not all pregnant women will have milk immediately after delivery. So, when do pregnant women usually have milk?
Pregnant women usually have milk in the first three to four days after giving birth, but the amount of milk is not very large. If pregnant women need to breastfeed their babies, they can eat more foods that help promote milk production, so as to continue to provide sufficient milk for the baby. However, when a pregnant woman will have milk varies from person to person. Some pregnant women may experience lactation by 9 months, which is usually caused by progesterone.
Some pregnant women begin to secrete milk in the late stages of pregnancy. Generally speaking, vaginal delivery allows for early lactation, while cesarean section allows for a slightly later delivery. Pregnant women should try to encourage their babies to suckle on their nipples as much as possible to help them with lactation. During this period, pregnant women should pay more attention to breast hygiene and take good care of their breasts.
After pregnancy, pregnant women are greatly affected by the secretion of progesterone in their bodies, which stimulates the development of their breasts. Therefore, there may be breast swelling and pain, and the symptoms are usually more obvious in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. After this period, they will gradually weaken. At this time, pregnant women should avoid excessive anxiety, avoid eating stimulating foods, and also avoid eating hormone containing foods indiscriminately. Maintaining a calm attitude is the key.
