An infant receiving breastfeeding.[1]
Establishment of breastfeeding refers to the initiation of providing breast milk of mother to baby. According to the World Health Organisation(WHO),[2] breastfeeding is the best way to provide nourishment, including essential nutrients, energy and antibodies, to infants and toddlers. The start of breastfeeding is supported by the milk production which depends on the development of internal and external breast structure and hormonal control on milk secretion.[3] Besides milk supply, adopting the correct approach of breastfeeding helps build up the maternal bond, which in turn promotes breastfeeding.[4] Not only does nursing strengthen the mother-child relationship, but it also improves the intelligence and immunity of breastfed children and diminishes breastfeeding mothers' risks to have ovarian and breast cancer.[2]
After establishing breastfeeding, it is crucial to ensure a constant milk supply to infants. To maintain milk production, postpartum mothers are recommended to have various food and remedies, providing minerals and vitamins for infants' growth and mothers' recovery.[5] For example, vitamin D is instrumental for infants' bones and skeletal muscles development.[6] Concerning the regimens promoting milk supply, the western one suggests herbal tea drinking[7] while the eastern one advises massaging various acupuncture points.[8]
However, activities reducing the quality of breast milk, such as alcohol drinking and smoking, should be avoided for infant's health. Additionally, mothers with diseases interfering breastfeeding, such as mastitis,[9] are suggested to seek professional medical assistance instead of following conventional remedies to ameliorate nursing difficulties.[10]
