A Approach to Issues

Recent research reported in the Journal of Pediatric, Maternal & Family Health – Chiropractic on a mother with difficulty producing breastmilk, reveals that chiropractic may play an important role in managing nursing mothers. The literature included supports the role of in mothers suffering from this health challenge and calls for more research in this area.

“Numerous case studies and some clinical studies are revealing that there is a relationship between abnormalities in the spine, the nervous system and the various health challenges that mothers experience”.

In the presented, the mother was suffering from low milk supply along with neck, upper back and shoulder pain that all improved under chiropractic care because of the nature of the nervous system and its relationship to the spine.”

According to researchers the nervous system controls and coordinates all functions of the body and structural shifts in the spine can occur that obstruct the nerves and interfere with their function. By removing the structural shifts, chiropractic improves nerve supply and function.

The 36-year-old mother reported on in the study had low milk supply along with neck, upper back and shoulder pain. She had delivered twins via an emergency c-section which left them in NICU for 22 days. She felt she was not producing enough milk even though she was pumping constantly. She became more and more depressed as she struggled with this.

The chiropractor examined her and found structural shifts in her neck and upper back. Restrictions were also noted in her shoulder, and tender areas in her chest and neck muscles. These structural shifts can lead to obstruction of the nerves and it is this obstruction, called vertebral subluxations, that chiropractors correct.

Following chiropractic care, she experienced immediate relief in her neck and shoulder pain. She also described feeling the tingling of milk let down as her milk supply increased for the first time. In addition to her milk supply normalizing and her back pains resolving, her overall emotional state improved as well. The study’s author called for additional research to investigate the clinical implications of chiropractic in this population.

What is ?

Dysphoric milk ejection reflex, or D-MER, is a condition that can affect some lactating women. It causes dysphoria, or a state of feeling unhappy, right before the breasts letdown, or release, milk. It doesn’t last more than a few minutes.

There have been only a few published papers on D-MER, and even today, many physicians aren’t aware of it, despite one survey that found about nine percent of new moms experience it. But while it’s not harmful, it can be distressing enough that you want to avoid nursing or give it up entirely.

What are the of D-MER?

Moms with D-MER describe the symptoms as coming suddenly, like a wave, a few seconds after they begin a feeding or pumping session. They experience a whole roller coaster of negative feelings, ranging from sadness to irritation to restlessness, anger or panic, and, in some cases, severe depression or anxiety.

These feelings usually disappear — as quickly as they showed up — within 10 minutes of initiating a feeding. (Some women have only mild symptoms, but for others the feelings can be severe.)

What D-MER?

It is thought to be related to two hormones, oxytocin and prolactin, that are released in response to breastfeeding.

is what causes your body to produce milk, while oxytocin causes it to “eject,” or spurt out.

begins to be released almost immediately after the baby begins suckling — or before pumping — at the breast, and is released in small pulses for the first 10 minutes, while prolactin is released more gradually for about 20 minutes after you start nursing.

Once oxytocin is released, it inhibits dopamine, a brain hormone and neurotransmitter that helps boost and stabilize mood. Normally, dopamine drops properly and breastfeeding mothers never notice anything, but in women with D-MER, it drops faster than normal, which causes a brief wave of negative emotions. This is temporary, however, as your dopamine levels bounce back after prolactin goes up.

What is D-MER ?
Unfortunately, there’s no “official” diagnosis of D-MER. There’s no blood test to test it, or a you can take at home or in the doctor’s office. But if symptoms only crop up during nursing, there’s a good chance that you do have it.

?
When an infant is placed in a car seat in a vehicle, the seat is secured to a base at an angle that keeps the child’s airway open. However, when the seat is taken out of the vehicle, that angle is no longer safe. The baby is likely to slouch forward, which can be extremely dangerous when they are very young and have weak neck muscles.

This slouched-forward position can cause positional asphyxiation; essentially the infant’s airway is cut off and they cannot breathe. This issue is not unique to car seats; positional asphyxiation can happen in a swing, bouncy seat or a baby carrier. If the infant is not repositioned quickly, this lack of oxygen can cause brain damage and eventual death.



A 10-year study of 11,779 infant sleep-related deaths showed that 348 (3%) babies died in sitting devices, in most cases while in car seats. More than 90% of the time, the car seats were not being used as directed. The median age at death was 2 months.


The results are reported in “Infant Deaths in Sitting Devices,” (Liaw P, et al. Pediatrics. May 20, 2019,
https://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/144/1/e20182576


About 3,700 infants die every year from sleep-related deaths, which include sudden infant death syndrome, accidental suffocation and strangulation in bed, and other ill-defined deaths.

Although sitting devices are designed for activities such as transportation, feeding and playing, parents may inappropriately rely on them as an alternative to a crib or bassinet. When the devices are not used as directed, infants can fall, fall from an elevated surface on which the device was placed, or flip onto a soft surface and suffocate. They also can be injured or killed with improper buckling of car seat straps.

The AAP recommends that babies be placed for sleep in a supine position for every sleep by every caregiver until the child reaches 1 year of age. Loose bedding and soft objects must be kept out of the sleep area. Sitting devices should not be used for routine sleep.



Babies should not be placed on an incline to sleep. With the head elevated, an infant is in a position that could lead to asphyxia. The straps on such products also can strangle infants. In addition, the AAP does not recommend any products for sleep that require restraining a baby, especially if the product also rocks.

The Pediatrics study and recent events are reminders of the need to educate parents and families about safe sleep environments, experts say.

While car seats are always the best place for babies when they are being transported in a vehicle, that doesn’t mean they are the safest place when they’re sleeping outside of the car. Parents should bring along a portable crib or bassinet for sleeping when they arrive at their destination.

“It’s not only that doctors — pediatricians — need to educate their families, the parents of their patients. They also need to have parents educate anyone who is taking care of their infant, whether it’s a grandparent, babysitter or child care provider, that car seats are not substitutes for cribs and bassinets,” he said. “The same is true for bouncers, swings and strollers.”



Safe and Sound
Keeping your infant safe in bed is as simple as A-B-C:

is for .

Smoking in the house puts the baby at risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Do not allow smoking around the child.

is for to .
To reduce the risk of SIDS, infants should be placed on their backs every time they sleep, not on their stomachs or sides. Babies who usually sleep on their backs but are then placed to sleep on their stomachs (during a nap, for example) have a very high risk for SIDS.

is for .

The baby should sleep on a firm mattress that fits snugly in the crib. The crib slats should be spaced no more than 2 3/8 inches apart so a child's head cannot become trapped between them. Keep pillows, blankets, bumper pads and stuffed toys out of the crib. These can block a baby's nose and mouth.

As an IBCLC; breastfeeding counselor and educator; I hope that can raise the awareness of all healthcare professionals about the importance of and skills to all staff who are in direct contact with the mother and her baby and the value of breastfeeding awareness all through the which should be implemented as part and follow up of the pregnant ladies with close follow up after delivery.

Help mothers reach their breastfeeding goals. Especially with the formula shortage, relatively safe alternatives are in HIGH DEMAND but SHORT SUPPLY.

Therefore I do believe that any hospital staff that works with pregnant or postpsrtum mothers, or newborns- from OB/GYNs to nurses to doulas or midwives to Pediatricians; family physicians or PHCP- should be certified in lactation. Not just have a few (or one) certified in lactation care in each health care facility; if present!

Take advantage of this dilemma to be back to the natural instincts " Breastfeeding".

WHO published new guidelines to improve survival and health outcomes for babies born early (before 37 weeks of pregnancy) or small (under 2.5kg at birth).

The new guidelines advise that skin to skin contact with a caregiver – known as kangaroo mother care – should start IMMEDIATELY after birth, without any initial period in an incubator.
