Breastfeeding

There is a saying that breast milk is the greatest gift for a newborn baby.

Breastfeeding not only promotes good health for the baby, but also has positive emotional effects.

After delivering a baby, mothers decide how to feed their child. There are different methods such as formula feeding, mixed feeding, and breastfeeding.

Exclusive breastfeeding means feeding the baby only breast milk without any baby formula.

Many mothers aspire to exclusively breastfeed, but they often encounter difficulties in practice. One of the many reasons is that they feel they don’t produce enough breast milk for their baby.

To increase breast milk production, it is important to breastfeed from each breast for about 15 minutes as frequently as possible. Initially, it may feel like the baby is hungry too often. However, with patience and diligence, mothers can experience a noticeable increase in the amount of breast milk.

 

aspire to - to have a strong wish or hope to do or have something

eat someone up - a strong feeling of affection or adoration towards someone, especially a child or a loved one

 

모유는 신생아에게 가장 큰 선물이라는 말이 있다.

모유 수유는 아기의 건강에 좋을 뿐만 아니라 정서적으로도 긍정적인 영향을 준다.

출산한 후 산모는 수유 방법을 결정한다. 분유 수유, 혼합 수유, 모유 수유 등 다양한 방법이 있다.

모유 수유는 분유를 먹이지 않고 모유만 먹이는 것을 의미한다.

많은 산모들이 모유만 먹이기를 열망하지만 실제로는 어려움을 겪는 경우가 많다. 많은 이유 중 하나는 아기에게 먹일만큼충분한 모유가 충분히 나오지 않는다는 것이다.

모유양을 늘리려면 양쪽 가슴을 가능한 한 자주 15분 정도 수유를 하는 것이 중요하다. 처음에는 아기가 너무 자주 배고픈 것처럼 느껴질 수 있다. 그러나 인내심을 갖고 꾸준히 수유한다면 산모는 모유양이 눈에 띄게 증가하는 것을 알 수 있다.
