Question
I am a new mother, 28 years old, currently in the breastfeeding period. Is breast milk harmful if I stay up late?
Answer
Working overtime during breastfeeding may lead to abnormal milk secretion and milk stasis. It is recommended to get plenty of rest and pay attention to diet. Insufficient milk supply can have various causes, including lack of sleep, mental anxiety, and unpleasant events. The function of the breasts is to secrete milk to meet the baby’s needs, so drink more soup and let the baby suck more.
