Studien zeigen: Stillen nach Bedarf ist am besten

BAAR/Schweiz - Viele Mütter werden beim Stillen von Selbstzweifeln und Unsicherheit geplagt: Reicht die Milchmenge aus? Hat mein Baby einen normalen Stillrhythmus? Enthält meine Milch alles, was das Baby braucht? Ermutigende Ergebnisse liefern now studies at the University of Western Australia, carried out by the world's leading lactation researchers: provides the body of the mother is usually that the baby receives all the essential nutrients - no matter how often, how long or how often a baby is drinking. The important thing is that mother and child find their own rhythm and as required, that is, depending on the appetite of the baby will be satisfied.

found during their work, the scientists from the team led by leading nursing researcher Dr. Peter Hartmann eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Stillgewohnheiten vor: Während die einen Babys sechs Mal am Tag nach der Brust verlangten, wollten andere bis zu 18 Mal am Tag gestillt werden. Die einen tranken während einer Mahlzeit nur an einer Brust, andere an beiden. Während das eine Kind nachts durchschlief, wollte das andere auch zur Nachtzeit regelmäßig gefüttert werden. Auch die Trinkdauer und die aufgenommene Milchmenge pro Stillmahlzeit unterschieden sich von Baby zu Baby. Auf einen Zeitraum von 24 Stunden gesehen, nahmen dennoch alle eine ähnliche Menge an Nährstoffen auf. Entscheidend war einzig, dass nach Bedarf gestillt wurde.

Andere Studien der Forschergruppe support these results: For example, changes the composition of milk during both a meal and still depends on the age of the child and fits the needs of the child. Even so, the body of the mother makes sure that the baby always gets all the nutrients it needs to date.

Hartmann and his colleagues presented these findings recently at a conference in Basel, which was from the BSS (Professional Association of Swiss lactation consultants) and the company Medela, a manufacturer of breast pumps and breastfeeding accessories organized. Medela is working closely with the Laktationsforschergruppe the University of Western Australia, and promote their studies. "By support the work of Dr. Hartmann, we want as many mothers as possible to allow a beautiful and successful breastfeeding experience, "says Dr. Leon Mitoulas, chief scientist of the Department of breastfeeding research at Medela." One of the main reasons for breastfeeding problems of self-doubt and stress are the mothers - combined with conflicting and not very objective advice. Therefore, we are also committed to the research results come in still life of women. And ultimately make sure that more mothers breast-feeding and longer silent "
