Puppies
【Diagnosis and Treatment】
Clinically, the breasts are soft and shrunk, and the milk gradually decreases, or there is no milk, or suddenly there is no milk and the milk disappears. The puppies suck less frequently, often press their heads against the breasts, and often cry out due to hunger. The screams were occasionally interrupted due to pain.
【Prevention and Treatment】
Improve feeding management and feed nutritious food or soup bait to induce lactation. Let the sick dog live in a safe and familiar environment.
Warm compress and breast massage are an important way to stimulate breast function, which should be done 2 to 3 times a day.
Female dogs should be fed prolactin syrup or prolactin tablets immediately after giving birth. You can also try traditional Chinese medicine to induce lactation. 25g of Wangbuliuxing, 10g each of Tongcao, Gobi, and Atractylodes, white peony root, angelica root, astragalus root, Codonopsis.
Folks often give mothers carp soup, pig's trotter soup, etc. on the third day after delivery. This makes sense.
The raw materials used in lactation soup are mostly pig's trotters, carp, catfish, shrimp, mussels, eggs, red beans and some Chinese herbal medicines, and less chicken is used (the reason is that hens contain A certain amount of estrogen. We know that after a mother gives birth, the concentration of estrogen and progesterone in the blood drops significantly. At this time, prolactin takes effect and promotes the secretion of milk. Eating stewed hens immediately after delivery will increase the concentration of estrogen in the blood. The increased concentration of sex hormones weakens or fails to exert the effect of prolactin, which in turn leads to insufficient postpartum milk). Of course, it is not impossible for pregnant women to eat hens, but it is best to eat them around 10 days after delivery, when the milk secretion is relatively sufficient. It is not advisable to use salt in prolactin soup. Even if salt is used, the amount should be small, generally less than half of the usual amount. The following are two lactation soups for reference.
