Should newborn babies squeeze their nipples?

A few days after her daughter was born, she found that her nipples were a little swollen and seemed to be developing. Her grandmother found out in the shower that she was going to squeeze her hands dyed green by vegetables. I found it and immediately said, mom, mom, you can't squeeze this. The doctor said in the hospital two days ago that this is normal. In the past, there was a little sister-in-law in my hometown who squeezed this nipple for my child, which caused the child to be infected and went to the hospital for a few days with a fever.

My wife was a little unhappy, but she didn't squeeze. Later, I found an expert video lecture on milking online to show her. She doesn't believe it.

When the mother is pregnant, hormones will rise rapidly in order to let the child settle down in the uterus and provide nutrition for the fetus in the uterus. When hormones rise, mothers will not menstruate again, and their absorption rate of nutrients in food will be higher. It is not until postpartum that the mother's hormone level will slowly decline.

Children who have lived in their mother's womb for a long time will also come out of their mother's womb with many hormones, especially estrogen, which will not be eliminated for a while, and children will also have some symptoms similar to adolescence. For example, nipple development and even false menstruation in children are all the same symptoms in the process of hormone elimination. These symptoms will gradually disappear as the child grows up.

If parents make a fuss at this time and even squeeze their children's nipples, it is very likely to lead to infection or other symptoms, so don't squeeze milk powder when the child is born, just wash it gently when cleaning.

Children, especially newborns, are still very delicate and need the scientific care of our parents. Pay attention to Libo parenting and learn scientific parenting knowledge.
