How to bake carp for a nursing mother. Cod during lactation

What kind of fish can lactating mothers have? What are the safest seafood varieties? In what form should fish be eaten and how to cook it? Benefits and potential harm product in the diet of a woman during lactation.

Fish is a protein-rich animal product. Nutritionists advise to consume it twice a week. Its protein is different from that found in meat or milk. It is absorbed by the body much faster and easier, therefore fish dishes are light, less nutritious with a high nutritional value.

Product features

Among the huge variety of seafood, a nursing mother is not too limited in her choice. Eating fish during breastfeeding is not just possible, but necessary. Indeed, it contains valuable substances necessary to maintain a woman's health.

  • Unsaturated fatty acid. These substances are found only in varieties of oily fish, which is why salmon, salmon, herring when breastfeeding are especially important in the diet of a young mother. Fatty acids Omega-3 and 6 are responsible for external attractiveness, as they are involved in the synthesis of skin tissues and its regeneration. However, they also perform more responsible work: they normalize metabolism and participate in the synthesis of hormones. Thanks to fatty acids, which a person can only get from food, his body systems work correctly.
  • Minerals. Breastfed fish will provide essential minerals such as calcium, selenium and phosphorus. They are involved in the formation of the skeletal system, skin and vascular walls. Marine fish are rich in iodine, which protects the body of a young mother from thyroid diseases.
  • Vitamins. Seafood contains a full range of B vitamins. Fish contains pantothenic acid, riboflavin, pyridoxine (vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12), which are involved in the functioning of the nervous system and hematopoiesis. It also contains vitamins A, C, E. They create conditions for the body's immune defense, the functioning of the bone and articular systems, and skin regeneration.

Fish should be eaten regularly. If a woman adheres to this rule during pregnancy, problems during lactation most likely will not arise. The baby's body is already familiar with fish dishes, so it will transfer them normally.

Risks and dangers of lactation

Like any protein product, fish during lactation can cause allergies on the part of the baby. When using it, adhere to the basic rules for introducing new components of the diet.

  • Eat only those varieties that you ate during pregnancy. In this case, when feeding a newborn, fish is unlikely to cause allergies, therefore, it is allowed not to change the diet in the first month after the birth of the baby. If a reaction occurs, remove the food from your diet and try it again in the second month.
  • Introduce new varieties carefully. As safe and healthy as red fish may seem when breastfeeding, they can cause allergies in your baby. To reduce the risk of a dangerous reaction, proceed as follows. Try a piece of fish, take a break for two to three days. If the skin rash does not occur, try the same piece again. The peculiarity of the action of allergens is that after the first use of the product, they do not appear. But each next "experiment" makes the allergic reaction more pronounced.
  • Diversify your seafood diet. If you do not notice unpleasant reactions from the crumbs to different fish, there is no reason to limit it in the diet. Eat whatever you like.

Get a quality, fresh carcass. It contains valuable and useful substances. Once cooked, it will be juicy and tasty. The frozen product will not please with its richness of taste.

How to choose fish for HB

The only correct answer to the question of whether it is possible for a nursing mother to have salmon, for you, should be the state of your crumbs. The absence of skin rashes, digestive disorders will serve as an indicator of the normal reaction of his body to these products.

Under the ban for a nursing mother - large ocean fish. Studies by American scientists have shown that in some of its varieties (king mackerel, all types of sharks), the content of mercury exceeds the permissible limit by eight times.

Mercury is a carcinogen, so eating such fish is dangerous in principle. In our country, these varieties are not common. Of the popular ocean fish, golden tuna is on sale. Mercury is also fixed in it, but, according to experts, its amount does not exceed the permissible level. Eating such fish is allowed once a week.

The birth of a child is happiness, but at the same time it is a huge responsibility for the health and well-being of the baby, which are unthinkable without adequate nutrition. Lucky for breastfed babies, because mother's milk is known for its valuable properties. But sometimes it is also a source of problems if a woman's diet is not formulated correctly. There are a lot of myths about what mom should not eat during this period. Sometimes women go on starvation diets so as not to spoil the quality of milk. But in this case, the reserves of nutrients in the body are quickly depleted. Vitality evaporates, health problems begin.

Menu for a nursing mother in the first month after childbirth

Mandatory criteria for the diet of a nursing mother are usefulness and calorie content. During this period, a woman needs 400 - 600 kilocalories more daily than in other periods of her life. The lactation process is complex, useful substances enter the milk from the mother's body, which means that their supply in the body must be sufficient. But also harmful substances, allergens, as well as elements that cause fermentation in the intestines can get into milk. If the baby has a rash on the skin, or he has become overly capricious, whiny, the mother should reconsider her diet.

Modern doctors and scientists agree that absolutely any product can cause an allergic reaction if it is consumed in excessive quantities. At the same time, when a child receives small amounts of allergens through milk, his body gradually adapts to them. However, you should gradually teach your baby to different substances in milk. Therefore, it is so important to follow a diet in the first month after the birth of the baby. And for the entire period of breastfeeding, abandon semi-finished products, canned, smoked, fried foods, as well as those that contain vegetable fat, preservatives, dyes, flavors, substitute products.

It is better to eat more often, but little by little (3-5 meals a day).

Breakfast

Eat porridge for breakfast. At first, choose those that do not contain gluten (it causes allergies in many). It can be buckwheat, rice, corn porridge... Boil them in water. V ready meal put a lump of butter.

Replace porridge with cottage cheese two to three times a week (In no case curd product- read the information on the label carefully). If you take low-fat, eat it with sour cream.

As a drink, try rosehip infusion, weak green or black tea (not from tea bags, loose leaf), herbal teas... On sale there are herbal preparations intended for nursing mothers. Be careful with infusions of sage, jasmine, mint: they suppress lactation. Drink sugar-free tea. If you really want to add it, replace the white refined with brown cane. Eliminate coffee and strong tea. They can cause colic, overexcitement, and disrupt sleep. Remember to drink fluids in moderation when breastfeeding. Its deficiency leads to dehydration of the body, an increase in the fat content of milk, an excess leads to lactostasis. The consumption rate for a lactating woman is 2.5–3 liters, including water supplied with food. Half of this amount should come from drinking water.

If you want sweets for tea, replace the usual confectionery for dried fruits ( dried apples, pears, prunes), biscuit biscuits.

Dinner

Make it a rule to eat soup every day, because it replenishes the body with useful substances, vitamins, microelements. In addition, the warm liquid promotes better milk production. At first, eat ordinary vegetable broths, adding zucchini and potatoes there. Instead of table salt when cooking, use sea ​​salt... Do not forget about greens, they help to better digest food.

Pour meat or fish with water, after boiling, cook for two to three minutes, and then pour in new water. Try adding carrots, cabbage, onions, and garlic there. Contrary to popular belief, onions and garlic do not spoil the taste of milk, much less boiled ones. Excessive consumption of cabbage can cause increased gas formation, colic in the baby. However, in a small amount, boiled, will only benefit, because it is a storehouse of vitamins and minerals. Do not eat cabbage, raw peas for the first time.

Instead of yeast bread and baking use whole wheat bread, bran bread, rye buns, crispbread.
