The daughter-in-law’s bust isn’t particularly large, but when you get close, there’s that scent.
So Li Jingsheng suspected that she hadn’t completely weaned the child.
Usually, after weaning for more than three days, milk secretion significantly decreases.
After about a week, it is basically difficult to breastfeed again.
Because there’s no more breast milk secretion.
The secretion of breast milk starts even before childbirth for young mothers.
This is a special reproductive ability of all lactating female animals.
After pregnancy, under the stimulation of estrogen and progesterone, mammary gland tissues further develop, secretion chambers form, and secretion cells gain functional capability.
After the fetus is born, the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body suddenly drop, and the pituitary gland begins to secrete prolactin, stimulating the secretion of milk.
Breast milk mainly includes milk fat, milk protein, lactose, inorganic salts, vitamins, enzymes and hormones, maternal antibodies and many other nutrients and special energy.
These substances are transported by blood from the digested and absorbed nutrients to the breast, and through decomposition, combination, diffusion, and penetration by the mammary gland tissues, they ultimately form breast milk to nurture the infant.
The best feeding is breastfeeding.
It makes children healthier, smarter, and they can easily fight various external viruses and bacteria by obtaining antibodies from breast milk.
The greatness and selflessness of mothers are not just words.
Not to mention ten months of pregnancy.
Each childbirth is equivalent to crossing the ghost gate once.
Then, they will generally breastfeed for at least around a year before weaning. During this period, besides supplementary food, the baby absorbs nutrients solely from the mother’s body.
Mothers after childbirth and breastfeeding will be very weak physically for one to two years, or even three to four years.
It’s because they have given all the nutrients to their child.
The saying about "pregnancy brain lasting for three years" does have some scientific basis.
Li Jingsheng wants to treat this baby from multiple aspects to achieve rapid results.
The young mother felt embarrassed upon hearing his question.
"There’s no taboo in illness, just speak frankly! Plus, this matter concerns the treatment plan I make for the child."
Li Jingsheng said with a serious face.
Seriousness can alleviate the embarrassment of patients and their families in many scenarios.
In the face of diseases, humans are very insignificant.
Certain worldly perspectives can completely be set aside.
The child’s grandmother turned to her daughter-in-law, "There’s nothing to be shy about, just tell Dr. Li directly. Don’t fidget, you’re a mother now, why pretend to be bashful!"
This grandmother is fine in all aspects except for being too assertive toward the daughter-in-law.
