Can I still breastfeed while pregnant? If I do it wrong, the baby in my belly may not be safe…

Question: I am pregnant with two children, will it affect the development of the fetus if the older baby continues to breastfeed? I feel like the baby is too young, so I haven’t been weaned. If it affects me, can I eat more nutritious food? Dr. Zhang Yanyan answered: The impact is divided into two aspects, one is the impact on the baby, and the other is the impact on the breastfeeding mother. Effects on the baby During lactation pregnancy, as the pregnancy progresses, the secretion of milk will become less and less. Naturally, babies do not get the nutrients they should have, which affects their normal development, leading to malnutrition, low immunity, and vulnerability to illness. Therefore, if you decide to have a baby in your belly, you must stop breastfeeding. Impact on Breastfeeding Mothers After pregnancy, breastfeeding mothers will be anxious that the baby in their belly and arms will not receive adequate nutrition. Stress will affect the mood of the pregnant mother, leading to a series of negative effects. In addition, pregnant mothers need more nutrition. If they insist on breastfeeding, they will be unable to bear it, let alone feeding two babies. What is even more worrying is that continuing to breastfeed after pregnancy will cause stimulation to the nipples, easily cause uterine contractions, and may lead to threatened abortion of the baby in the belly! Question 2: Hello Dr. Cui, my baby is more than ten months old and always has a fever above 39 degrees. No matter whether I take anti-fever injections or take anti-pyretics, the fever always goes down and then comes back up. I went to the doctor and was told it was an upper respiratory viral infection. Please ask the doctor, why does the baby always have a fever after the medicine wears off? Moreover, my child has been anemic (hemoglobin 93), what should I do? Dr. Cui Lixia answered: According to the description, it is recommended to take azithromycin and Xiaoer Chaigui Antipyretic Granules to see if fever is caused by inflammation. Hemoglobin 93 indicates mild iron deficiency anemia, which can be corrected by taking ferrous lactate oral solution containing 100 mg of iron per tube. In addition, it is recommended to add milk powder and iron-fortified rice flour to feed. After getting used to it, you can add milk powder, fruit puree, egg yolk and other foods. Question 3: Hello doctor, my baby is one year and five months old. Why does he sweat so much? When I go out, I wear the same clothes as other children, but my head feels like rain. May I ask what\’s going on? Dr. Zhang Yanmei’s answer: If a child tends to sweat when he moves, it is due to a deficiency of the lungs and spleen. This may also happen when a child is sick. It is recommended that you give your child some lily, tremella, lotus seed and mung bean porridge in the summer.
