POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy11 months agoA. For a working mom who stops breastfeeding for 12 hours, several things can happen:
1. Milk Supply: The milk supply may begin to decrease if breastfeeding or pumping is not done regularly. Consistent removal of milk signals the body to produce more.
2. Engorgement: The breasts may become engorged, leading to discomfort or pain.
3. Potential Blockages: If milk is not expressed, it can lead to clogged ducts or mastitis, an infection of the breast tissue.
4. Feeding Challenges: When returning to breastfeeding, the baby may have difficulty latching if there’s a significant gap in feeding.
5. Emotional Impact: Some mothers may feel anxious or guilty about not being able to feed their baby, which can affect emotional well-being.
Tips for Managing
Pump Regularly: If possible, pump milk during work hours to maintain supply.
Stay Hydrated and Nourished: Proper nutrition and hydration can help maintain milk production.
Comfort Measures: Use warm compresses or gentle massage if engorgement occurs.
If prolonged breaks from breastfeeding are needed, consider consulting a lactation consultant for personalized strategies.
