ABSTRACT

Objective:

To investigate the effect of milking diary combined with syringe collection of colostrum on early lactation.

Methods:

Totally 80 cases of separated mothers and infants hospitalized in the maternity ward of our hospital from February to November 2018 were selected as research objects, February to June as control group, July to November as experimental group, 40 cases respectively, two groups were given routine maternal lactation, experimental group in regular maternal lactation guidance, on the basis of guiding diary records milking and provides the syringe collection of colostrum. Comparison of two groups of maternal postpartum 3 days milking frequency and milking, lactation, start time, lactation Ⅱ period time, breast tenderness and 42 days exclusive breastfeeding rates.

Results:

Postpartum 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours of milking times of delivery woman in experimental group were respectively (7.25 ± 1.53), (7.40±1.26), (8.50±0.82) times, which were higher than (4.18 ± 2.62), (6.35±1.73), (7.35±1.72) times in control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were -6.408, -3.102, -3.824, P < 0.01). Milking 49-72 hours was 50.30 ml, which was significantly higher than 30.70 ml of control group, the difference was statistically significant ( Z value was 3.773, P < 0.01); mammary start time, lactation Ⅱ period significantly ahead of time, respectively (9.82 ± 3.62) hours in advance, and (15.83 ±0.78) hours, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 2.480,4.871, P<0.05); breast pain Ⅲ degrees within 72 hours of experimental group 5.0% (2/40) was significantly lower than the control group 25.0% (10/40), 42 days exclusive breastfeeding rate 62.5% (25/40) was significantly higher than the control group 22.5% (9/40), the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.772, 13.095, P<0.05).

Conclusion:

Joint syringe collection colostrum milk a diary method can effectively improve maternal milk, increase the amount of milk secretion, and early lactation start time and duration of lactation Ⅱ period, so as to promote exclusive breastfeeding rate and duration of breastfeeding, and can effectively reduce the degree of breast tenderness, worthy of clinical popularization and application
