As a mother, there is nothing as natural as you want to make
the best decisions for your new baby. That's why breastfeeding is a natural
choice for many women. During the first 6 months, your breastmilk meets all the
food your baby needs for nutrition. If breastfeeding is not possible or if you
do not prefer breastfeeding, your doctor will tell you what to do. Although
babies are born with the need to suck, it will take some time for you to get
used to breastfeeding and there may be some minor problems. Just remember, the
time taken to create a comfortable breastfeeding
relationship with your baby is a learning
process for both your baby and you.
Characteristics of breast milk

less susceptible to infectious diseases such as diarrhea, pneumonia and
allergic diseases and grow healthier. Reduces the risk of bedbugs death and
Sudden Infant Death Risk Syndrome. Breast milk increases resistance to
infections. It prevents ear infections, stomach discomfort, but also increases
eyesight. It provides the development of speech and jaw structure as well as
high IQ potential. In the first 6 months, breastfeeding is effective in
preventing diseases such as diabetes and heart diseases. Even recent studies
have shown that cancer, rheumatism and some autoimmune diseases can be
effective even in reducing the likelihood of development.
• Breastfeeding that is released in the first days after
birth is very nutritious, so make sure that your baby is frequently breastfed
(one to two hours apart or crying).
• At the beginning, your milk will be a yellowish liquid
called sı colostrum •. This liquid is rich in vitamins and minerals and
contains antibodies that will protect your baby's immune system against
microbes and disease. After a few days your milk will turn into the usual white
color. Nevertheless, breast milk in white color area does not appear as white as
cow's milk. The color of your breast milk may vary from breastfeeding to
breastfeeding. Sometimes it may be in the appearance of water, but it contains
nutrients. As your baby grows, the composition of your breast milk will also
change according to its changing needs.

How does breast milk protect your baby from diseases?
Breast milk is something different than food. Actually it is
a complex and alive component like blood. It contains an active microbe enemy
and health-friendly substances that can be listed in a long list. They help
babies in their struggles against common or rare diseases.
Colostrum, the milk produced by mothers in the first days
after birth (especially rich in IgA), provides the necessary support for the
new baby in the first days of the outer world where the new baby needs to be
protected from foreign matter entering the microbes and body. Colostrum also
contains a large amount of white blood cells and components that fight disease.
Colostrum is your baby's first important immune weapon.
Immunity occurs according to conditions. Every mother provides
the appropriate milk to protect her newborn. When a baby encounters a new germ,
the mother's body produces antibodies against that microbe. These antibodies
appear in the breast milk and pass through this way to the baby.

Best for you
In addition to providing her with the best possible
beginning in life and creating a unique bond of love for her baby, breast milk
provides mothers the following advantages:

baby. The hormone oxytocin, which is released from the brain, allows the uterus
to shrink and regenerate.
• Research shows that the risk of developing heart failure
is reduced with bone resorption and breastfeeding. It is even known to reduce
the risks of uterine and breast cancer.
How should I breastfeed?
Keep your baby on the side he loves, try to keep him wrapped
throughout your body. Support with your arm on the same side while
breastfeeding. Your baby should be lying uc with your breasts, your chin is on
your chest anız and your mouth should be flush with your breast and your
nipple. A pillow on your lap can be useful. Wrap the underside of your baby
into your body. When breastfeeding, your baby's face, shoulders and body facing
the breast, should be at the nipple level. Sit in a comfortable position
yourself. Make sure the baby not only grasps the nipple but also the dark part
around the nipple. In this way, both the baby absorbs well and your nipple does
not hurt
• Point your baby towards your chest with your free hand.
Touch your lower lip with your nipple and wait for your baby to open your mouth
wide.
• Bring your baby to your chest quickly as soon as the mouth
is wide open, so make sure that your baby receives a large portion of the
nipple and the surrounding dark portion.
• When your baby is sucking, you will notice that her mouth
is wide open, and that both lips open to the outside or close to your chest.
• Your baby will stop when you are satisfied and leave your
chest. If you want your baby to leave your chest, place your little finger on
the edge of your mouth to stop your baby from sucking. Or squeeze your nose
slightly.
The most important factor that increases the milk production
in your breasts is to suckle your baby with frequent intervals and with the
appropriate technique as mentioned above. Breastfeeding mothers should always
wear bra. Bra should be made of abundant and cotton fabric.
Milk production increases with the emptying of the breasts.
Therefore, breastfeed your baby frequently. If your baby does not suck your
chest by hand or using a milk pump must be emptied.
While breastfeeding, there may be cracks in the nipples.
This is often the result of the baby sucking only the nipple. When you encounter
such a problem, keep your baby breastfeeding with the correct technique above,
keep your breasts dry. Contact your doctor or nurse.
Feed your baby only breast milk for the first 6 months. In
these months, additional nutrients supplied with breast milk reduce intake and
frequency of intake and indirectly reduce your milk and prevent breast milk
from being used sufficiently. If the disease is hot or the weather is too hot,
your baby does not need water or other liquids other than breast milk before
six months. (herbal teas, fruit juice, food, etc.)
Do not give your baby a new diet without consulting the
doctor with the opinion that breast milk is insufficient. If you need to give
another food, learn how to prepare it and pay close attention to cleaning rules.
Feeding times of the baby
Your baby and you will soon establish your own flexible
nutrition model, but in general, breastfeeding can be expected 6-8 times for a
24-hour period. Sometimes your baby may want to be fed more often. This is
normal, often occurs due to sudden growth and will end in 15-20 days. You will
see the interval between feeding times over time.
The milk that comes first in each breastfeeding is the gelen
foresight az with less fat. As the baby continues to absorb the milk composition
changes, the amount of fat increases. Milk, which contains the most fat, is the
secreted milk at the end of breastfeeding. This is called “sonsut Buna. The
baby needs both anterior and posterior. If the baby is placed in the breast
until it is placed in the breast, satiated and left the breast itself, it takes
both anterior and posterior. The second breast may also be given if the baby
wants to suck. If two nozzles are given, the next item is started from the last
end. Many babies are fed and sleep by sucking one breast in 5-10 minutes. Some
babies do not leave the breast before 20- 30 minutes.
How much is enough?
It is normal for your baby to be satisfied, that is to stop
breastfeeding when it is saturated and leave your chest. The length of the
suction time is variable. When your baby begins to feed, it will absorb quickly
and quickly until the first milk flow begins. As breastfeeding progresses, your
baby will begin to absorb more slowly and rhythmically. Your baby can calm down
and even sleep. This occurs when the finite rich in oil content is reached.
When your baby's weight increases slightly (150-200 grams per week) and
your baby gives an alarm between the feeding hours and then calms down
significantly, you can understand that it is adequately fed. One of the most
important indicators is diapers and you can expect at least 6-7 diaper changes
per day. Breast-fed babies can make a small amount of poop after every feeding,
this is normal, do not worry. However, babies and sometimes can save up to 3-4
days by collecting their poo. But a well-fed baby will definitely make enough
pee and gain weight.
