A nebulizer is a small machine that is powered by an air compressor. Though it is portable, it requires electric, tubing connects the compressor to a cup that holds the liquid medicine. Depending on the person's needs, a nebulizer can be used with either a mask or a mouthpiece.
1 One of these hormones (prolactin) acts on the milk-making tissue, building up the milk supply. 2  The other hormone (oxytocin) causes the breast to push out or release the milk already there. 3  This release of milk is known as the let-down reflex (sometimes called the milk ejection reflex). The more often your babyâs sucking causes a let-down and the more milk that is removed from your breasts, the more milk will be made. 2  Respond to your babyâs feeding cues. 3  Crying is a late sign of hunger. 4  Breastfeed your baby often.
Oxytocin and Prolactin are the hormones produced during breastfeeding that work together to make milk, establish a letdown, and keep up with the supply and demand of a nursing infant. Production of Prolactin is stimulated by the baby sucking at the breast, and its primary function is to make more milk. Breastfeeding hormones are an important part of keeping up your milk supply. Every time your child nurses, it sends the signal to your body that more milk is needed, and then more Prolactin is produced.
