BABY DO NOT WANT ANYMORE SUKLE

When to wean your baby from a bottle, note the following.

> Do not start weaning when the mother is busy or stressed, or child is sick.

> If the child is sick, never mind back into the bottle if he wants. However, once cured, consistently try to avoid the use of the bottle.

> When a little child drinking milk from a glass, give dairy products in the food, such as cheese, milk pudding, cream soups, and more.

Doc, I have a 7 month old baby boy. I never leave their children to the mother in the village for 3 months, after which he did not want to suckle. Is there anything I can do for children to stop breastfeeding? Is it true that women who do not breastfeed can get breast cancer?

             Mrs. Aisha, there are two things that the mother asked. First, efforts to make the stop breastfeeding the baby back after so long without feeding (because it is not fed directly, one of them) is called relactation. Relactation success is higher in infants aged 4 months or less, but it is still very possible for older babies his age.

             If the baby still want to suck your breasts (although breastfeeding is not there), then offer the baby to breastfeed as often as possible, every time he looked hungry or thirsty. Always start by offering first lactation. But if the baby is not going to breastfeed longer, although the mother has to offer direct breast, you should take precautions to pump breast milk as often as possible. Breast milk can be given through a glass, spoon, dropper, or bottle.

             The habit of pumping as much as possible to increase the production of breast milk that has been very little, even make back the milk produced after so long not produced. Remember, optimistic and positive thoughts will be feeding the baby was instrumental in the success of relactation. So instill confidence: I can! When more and more and the amount of milk flowing from the breast, the possibility of direct-fed babies will return would suck his mother's breast.

             Another step that can be done is with the help of the drain hose breast milk (or formula) of the container / bottle to end breast. Babies positioned to drink directly from the hose so that he felt her breasts produce enough milk and the number is expected to stop breastfeeding the baby back straight. If the mother still experiencing problems, contact a lactation counselor nearest to stay Mother.

             For the second question, according to some studies, the duration of breastfeeding is proven to reduce the incidence of breast cancer. But it does not mean women who are not breastfeeding will definitely get breast cancer.

             This type of cancer has several risk factors, that if the more risk factors, the higher the chances of breast cancer. Among other things, maternal age (over 30 years), who had a family history of breast cancer, younger age at the start of menstruation, old age when stopped menstruating (menopause), and others. Mothers who do not breastfeed is just one risk factor.
             The longer breastfeeding the child was shown to reduce the occurrence of breast cancer up to three percent. Keep in mind, breast cancer can still occur in women who do not have all of these risk factors. Apart from this problem, breastfeeding is still a lot better and a lot of benefits compared with not breastfeeding.
