Methodological recommendations “Regimen and diet of a nursing mother”


The importance of following a diet during lactation

The diet of a nursing mother is based on two basic principles - the usefulness of dishes and a balanced diet. Adhering to such a diet for at least the first months after the birth of the baby will help the child’s body to improve its functioning.

The composition of the milk depends on what the young mother eats. Failure to follow a nursing diet can cause the baby to experience such undesirable reactions as:

  • bowel dysfunction;
  • allergy;
  • colic;
  • rashes and redness of the skin;
  • restlessness during daytime or nighttime sleep.

When compiling a daily diet, a woman should give preference to high-quality and fresh products. Food poisoning will have a negative impact on the mother’s body, weakened after childbirth.

The following will not benefit a woman during lactation:

  • strict restrictions on food. An overly strict diet for a mother in the first months of a baby’s life without good reason is not justified. The absence of undesirable reactions to various foods in mother and baby indicates the need to eat everything, but in moderation.
  • binge eating. Nursing mothers often think that they have to feed for two so that the baby gets the maximum amount of nutrients. This diet contributes to excess weight gain and stretching of the stomach, without bringing any benefit.

Basic principles of menu design

When thinking through the menu of a nursing woman, you should pay special attention to the caloric content and variety of the diet. In addition, it is very important for nursing mothers to consume enough fluids.

Typically, women after pregnancy are very concerned about regaining their figure. However, nursing mothers should never go on a diet. This can change the composition of milk, or even lead to its disappearance.

Doctors recommend that breastfeeding women eat about 500-700 kilocalories more than those who are not breastfeeding.

Is it possible to lose weight under such conditions? Oddly enough, yes. But the desired effect is achieved not by cutting back on the diet, but by changing the diet. During lactation, it is necessary to eat fractionally - ideally as often as the baby. This, on the one hand, stimulates milk production, and on the other, helps speed up metabolism, and therefore, fat burning.

It is important that the diet be varied - this will ensure the full composition of breast milk. In addition, in this way the child gradually develops habits for different foods.

To reduce the risk of allergies, it is advisable to exclude from your diet foods with preservatives, flavors, dyes and other artificial additives. Potential allergens should be eaten in small quantities, with caution, and monitor the child's reaction to them. At the same time, you need to know that allergies can manifest themselves not only as redness of the skin on the baby’s cheeks. The appearance of an incomprehensible rash, crusts on the head, diaper rash or greenish stool are also possible signs of an allergy. Sometimes it can even do without such manifestations: the child simply becomes restless, screams, and spits up. In such cases, the first thing a nursing woman should do is analyze her menu and adjust it. Often this simple measure is enough to ensure that all unpleasant manifestations disappear.

The most common allergens include:

  • chocolate;
  • coffee;
  • strawberries and other berries;
  • citrus fruits (especially oranges and tangerines);
  • milk;
  • eggs (egg white);
  • Fish and seafood;
  • Exotic fruits.

However, it should be remembered that allergies or individual intolerances can occur to almost any product. Therefore, nursing mothers should include all new dishes in their diet very carefully.

It’s probably unnecessary to remind you about the need to drink a lot of fluids. During lactation, a woman's drinking needs increase. At the same time, you can not drink everything - you should give preference to clean water and green tea, but it is better to postpone strong tea and coffee until later, until the end of the lactation period.

Rules for proper nutrition

Breastfed children eat exclusively this product for the first six months of life. Milk must be balanced. It prepares the child's body for adult food. A nursing mother's menu should consist of hypoallergenic ingredients and contain a large amount of nutrients.

During lactation, the daily calorie intake in the first six months of a baby’s life should be within 2700 kcal, up to 18 months – 2600 kcal. It is undesirable to exceed this figure, because this amount is enough for a woman’s body to restore and enrich breast milk with useful microelements.

A strict diet for a nursing mother in the first months after childbirth is necessary until the baby’s digestive system begins to function normally. Violation of the principles of proper nutrition leads to undesirable reactions - spasms, gas formation or colic in the child.

A nursing mother can diversify her diet starting from the third month of her baby’s life. The menu becomes complete during this period. The baby can safely introduce himself to unknown foods; his gastrointestinal tract stabilizes by the third month.

Basic rules for women during lactation:

  1. Five to six meals a day with breaks of no more than 3 hours.
  2. You should have a snack 30 minutes before feeding your baby.
  3. Spicy, fried, pickled and fatty foods should be excluded from the diet.
  4. Establish a drinking regime.
  5. Eat seasonal fruits and vegetables, dried or baked.
  6. Exclude from recipes ingredients that cause fermentation - white cabbage, grapes, wheat bread and legumes.
  7. Remove carbonated drinks and kvass from your diet.
  8. The menu should not contain onions and garlic, as well as seasonings that change the taste of breast milk.
  9. Expand the range of foods consumed after 6-8 weeks, gradually introducing ingredients unknown to the baby.

Dishes for nursing mothers

A woman during lactation should eat rationally so that milk is secreted in sufficient quantities. Dishes for nursing mothers must be prepared from fish and meat. The diet should include fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and eggs.

  • 16:00 - afternoon snack;
  • 19:00 - dinner.

If necessary, a 2nd dinner can be arranged at night at 21:00.

It is not advisable to skip meals, as this will negatively affect the quality of milk.

A set of products that a woman needs

A woman’s body should receive a sufficient amount of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, vitamins and micronutrients.

The following products provide these substances:

Meat is a source of protein, hemoglobin, and fats.

Secrets of properly introducing new dishes into the diet

When expanding her own menu, a young mother should be guided by three basic principles - observation, gradualism and caution. It is useful to keep a food diary, where the food, drink and reaction of the child’s body to the product are recorded.

New ingredients are introduced every 2-3 days, one at a time. This principle makes it possible to accurately determine which product the baby’s body reacted negatively to. If an allergic component is identified, you must stop using it for at least 30 days.

An ingredient unknown to the baby should be introduced into the diet of a nursing mother in the first half of the day. The portion increases gradually, while the mother carefully monitors the reaction of the child’s body.

Children's doctors suggest eating a variety of foods. Pediatricians will tell you what you can eat and in what quantities, and will give you nutrition tables for a nursing mother, taking into account the age of the baby.

A correct and balanced menu helps maintain a woman’s health and the full development of the baby. Breastfeeding lays the foundation for a child’s immunity, affects his mental development and his tendency to develop allergic reactions in adulthood. Therefore, pediatricians and nutritionists advise mothers to draw up a detailed nutrition plan, focusing on the table for the months of the baby’s life.

List of permitted products

Nutrition tables for nursing mothers detail the ingredients that can be included in food by month. Nutritionists and pediatricians allow the following:

  • wheat bread made from second-grade flour, rye crackers, biscuits with a minimum amount of sugar, drying;
  • a variety of cereals, steam puddings, cottage cheese casseroles;
  • white poultry and fish meat - hake, pollock, cod, rabbit, chicken, turkey, veal;
  • vegetarian soups and stews with a “second” broth. When preparing first courses, you should give preference to cauliflower, potatoes, zucchini and carrots;
  • seasonal fruits. It is better to start introducing it into your diet with a green apple. Nursing mothers can replace fruits and supplement the diet with juices and purees intended for baby food;
  • fresh and boiled vegetables - carrots, beets, pumpkin, zucchini, zucchini;
  • dried fruits are especially useful if the baby suffers from constipation;
  • fermented milk products – natural yogurt without additives, kefir, fermented baked milk, yogurt, acidophilus;
  • healthy sweets - marshmallows, marshmallows, meringues, marmalade without chemical additives;
  • vegetable (olive, sunflower) and butter;
  • herbal infusions, weak teas, weak coffee, still water, homemade fruit drinks and compotes.

Products to limit or exclude

There is no place in the diet of a nursing mother:

  • highly allergenic foods - nuts (except walnuts), seafood, red fish, chocolate, honey, orange and red fruits, caviar, crayfish and cocoa;
  • dishes and drinks that promote fermentation in the intestines - legumes, whole milk, kvass, yeast dough;
  • products with essential oils - citrus fruits, radishes, garlic, onions, radishes and celery;
  • fatty varieties of fish and meat, rich broths, smoked meats, marinades, spicy dishes, spices;
  • tropical fruits (bananas are an exception);
  • fermented cheeses, sour cream with a high percentage of fat;
  • pastries and cakes with cream;
  • energy drinks, carbonated drinks and alcohol.

During lactation you should limit your food intake:

  • whole milk - it can be diluted by half with water when cooking porridge;
  • bread and baked goods made from first and highest grade flour;
  • sugar and chemical sweeteners;
  • salt;
  • confectionery and unhealthy sweets.

What can't you eat for breakfast?

A nursing woman must remember that everything she eats will somehow end up in her milk. Therefore, all products to which the child is (or even may be) allergic are prohibited. Drinking alcohol is strictly prohibited. Coffee for breakfast is a classic, but nursing mothers will have to abstain from their favorite drink until the end of lactation. It is better to avoid hot spices. Many babies do not like the taste of onions or garlic - it is likely that a nursing mother will have to refrain from eating such products.

Breakfast for a nursing mother

During lactation, it is undesirable to eat dishes containing large amounts of coarse fiber. These are, first of all, dishes made from cabbage and legumes. Such food can cause colic in infants. You also need to be careful with sweets - consuming them can also cause stomach pain in children.

If a child is allergic, the list of prohibited foods increases. Moreover, nursing mothers should not only eat foods to which the baby has a pathological reaction, but also other potential allergens.

In most cases, there is no need to strictly limit yourself. It is enough to give up artificial products with harmful additives, caffeine-containing products, allergens, alcohol and legumes. Otherwise, it is enough to follow standard recommendations for a healthy diet. A moderately dense, tasty and unboring breakfast is a great start to the day that will bring joy to mother and child.

Features of nutrition in the second year of a child’s life

After the first year, the mother’s diet gradually returns to her usual. The list of permitted products has expanded so much that you can easily select recipes for delicious and healthy dishes. A nursing mother should give up alcoholic drinks and energy drinks. There is no need to rush into introducing new products.

The diet should remain complete and balanced. The basis should be based on ingredients familiar to the child’s body. The menu compiled for the first year had a positive effect on the health of mom and baby, so pediatricians do not recommend radically changing it.

Diet for mothers who want to lose weight

For women who breastfeed their babies, emergency weight loss measures are completely unsuitable. Excessively strict restrictions on food, especially in the first six months of a baby’s life, often lead to such consequences as:

  • sudden gain of extra pounds;
  • loss of skin elasticity;
  • deterioration of general condition;
  • loss of milk;
  • leaching of calcium from the body;
  • depression, emotional discomfort;
  • deterioration of the condition of nails, hair and teeth.

Those who want to lose weight must adhere to the following rules:

  • exclude fried/fatty/salty/smoked foods from the diet;
  • not to starve;
  • limit consumption of fast foods;
  • saturate your daily menu with healthy dishes.

A nursing woman should eat frequently, but consume no more than 150 grams per meal. This rule will help you avoid weight gain. In the struggle for a beautiful figure, do not forget about your own health.

What foods should breastfeeding women eat for breakfast?

So, in the morning you can indulge in almost all your favorite foods. At the same time, you should strive to ensure that your breakfast contains proteins, “slow” carbohydrates, fiber and a small amount of fat. For example, you can eat a sandwich made from grain bread with cheese and snack on it with an apple. Or you can prepare a bowl of oatmeal with a banana or other fruits, and wash the porridge with milk. A little cottage cheese with fruit and oatmeal cookies is also a great option. Or maybe eat a boiled egg, a slice of black bread and some vegetables?

It’s also good to drink tea with milk in the morning - it is believed that this drink promotes milk production in women. You can come up with a lot of options for a breakfast menu if you want. You just need to listen to the needs of your body, do not forget about common sense and carefully monitor how this or that new product affects the baby’s health.

If there are no housekeepers, then it is better to choose dishes that are easy to prepare. It doesn’t take much time to prepare a sandwich, the eggs also cook in a matter of minutes, and the porridge is easy to prepare. In any case, the menu should be varied: you should not eat only rolls, citing lack of time - such a diet will not benefit either the mother or the child.

It is imperative to ensure that every meal of a nursing mother, including breakfast, contains a sufficient amount of protein. A nursing woman should consume approximately 2 grams of protein per kilogram of weight per day, and it is desirable that these proteins be of animal origin. Low-fat meat, poultry, fish and eggs (if you are not allergic to these products). Dairy products, due to their high protein content, will help a woman recover quickly after childbirth and increase the nutritional value of breast milk.
