What to do if breast milk looks thin and transparent: is it true that the baby does not get enough of it
Many first-time mothers face doubts and myths about the quality and quantity of their milk.
In reality, their fears have little to do with reality, because in fact, mother's milk is a unique and perfectly balanced nutrition for newborn children.
Because the color of breast milk appears bluish, it feels thin and non-nutritious.
This is due to the fact that breast milk is divided into two fractions.
The front part is more liquid, but it is what quenches the baby's thirst, while the back part of breast milk is thicker and more nutritious.
If a mother, looking at her milk, begins to worry that her baby is not getting enough food, she may decide to supplement her baby, thereby making a fatal mistake.
Because it is much easier to “get” milk from a bottle than from the breast, the baby will probably not want to strain, and breastfeeding will have to be stopped.
Therefore, breastfeeding experts advise to be patient, learn how to properly latch the baby to the breast and feed, and not grab the formula from the first day of life.
