Question

Can a seven-year-old child consume the leftover breast milk from a baby?

Answer

Under normal circumstances, as children grow, breast milk naturally increases to meet their needs. Therefore, if there is an abundance of breast milk, it is feasible for a seven-year-old child to consume a moderate amount. However, it is recommended that mothers avoid using breast pumps to prevent overproduction of milk. At the same time, mothers can appropriately reduce fluid intake to control the production of breast milk. Additionally, eating more dry foods can also help reduce the secretion of breast milk.
