Mhlawumbi wonk 'ubani uyazi ukuba ibhinqa ayinaso ixesha lokulahlwa ngexesha lokuhlamba. Kodwa olu lwazi, njengommiselo, yonke into iyancinci. Kwaye oomama abaselula banemibuzo eninzi malunga nokuya esikhathini ngexesha lokuncelisa. Ixesha lokuya esikhathini liqala nini ngexesha lokutya? Ngaba ndiyakwazi ukuqhubeka ndilincelise xa beqala? Kwaye nabanye abaninzi. Ngako oko, sifuna ukuphendula imibuzo ethandwa kakhulu malunga neenyanga kunye neyantyambo.
Ngaba ukuya kwinyanga kunokuqalisa ngexesha lokuncelisa?
Inyanga nganye ngexesha lokuncelisa ibele kuyinto eqhelekileyo. Kodwa abasetyhini bayazi kakhulu ngaye.
Kwiinyanga ezi-2 zokuqala emva kokubeleka, umfazi unako ukuqhubeka nokukhulelwa kwe-postpartum. Akunakulinganiswa nokuya esikhathini kwaye unomntu ohlambululayo kuphela. Ngokuqhelekileyo kwenzeka ukuba ukukhutshwa kwe-postpartum kubonakala kuphelile, kwaye ngasekupheleni kwenyanga yesibini, lona wesifazane uphinde uchithe igazi. Ngokuqhelekileyo umfazi unokubadibanisa kunye nokuya esikhathini, nangona kunjalo ayikho. Ngaloo ndlela umzimba uyawugqiba ukuhlambuluka.
Ekubonweni kokuqala, akukho nto inobungozi ekuhambeni kwexesha kunye nokukhutshwa komva. Kodwa ngelo xesha, kukho imiba emibini ebalulekileyo. Okokuqala, umfazi unako ukuphulaphula "abacebisi" kumntu nonina kunye nogogo, oza kugxininisa ukuba xa ixesha liqalisile, ngoko ukuncelisa umntwana kufuneka kuhlangane. Oku ngakumbi malunga nale nto, siya kuthetha ngakumbi. Okwesibini, ukuba ibhinqa lifumanisa ukuba i-postpartum discharge is tosts, emva kwenyanga, xa kulandela yonke imimiselo yendalo, ukuya kwinyanga kuya kuqalisa kwakhona, kuya kumangaliswa kwaye kukhwankqiswe ukungabikho kwakhe. Nangona kunjalo akufanele kube njalo.
Ngethuba lini na ixesha lokuqalisa isisu ngexesha lokuncelisa?
Ngoku makhe sithethe malunga nexesha elide ixesha elide lihlala ngayo. Ixesha lokufika kweenyanga lihluka kakhulu ngexesha. Kwiminyaka emininzi edlulileyo, xa i-amenorrhea ye-lactational yayiyiyo kuphela yokukhulelwa kunye nabasetyhini ababelethwe ubuncinane iminyaka engama-3, ukuhamba kwakhe kwaqalisa kwakhona kamva, ngokulandelana, kunabesifazane ba namhlanje. Ngoku ixesha lokufika kwexesha lokunyuka kweenyanga ku-6-12 inyanga emva kokubeleka (kunye neengcebiso ze-WHO malunga nokuncelisa ibele). Ukufikelela kwiinyanga ezi-6, umntwana kufuneka adle ubisi lomama kuphela. Emva kweenyanga ezintandathu, ukuxhaswa kuvunyelwe. Apha ngokusungulwa kokutya okudibeneyo kwaye kungahambelana nokuqala kokuya esikhathini. Kodwa kufuneka uqikelele ubunzima bokufunda umntwana ngokutya kwabantu abadala, kunye nexesha lokusebenzisa umntwana kwisifuba sakhe.
Ukuba umntwana akaxhaswanga, kodwa kumxube, ukuhamba kwexesha kunokuqala ngaphambi kweenyanga ezintandathu emva kokubeletha. Kuyafana nokuqala (ngaphambi kweenyanga ezi-6) ukuqaliswa kokutya okudibeneyo, okanye kwinto eqhelekileyo yamanzi e-dopaivaniya.
Kodwa ku funeka kuqatshelwe ukuba kukho iimeko xa, ngokuthotyelwa ngokupheleleyo kwiingcebiso ze-WHO kwimithetho yokuncelisa, umfazi uqala ekuqaleni kwenyanga. Kule meko, ungakhathazeki, mhlawumbi unemikhankaso enkulu phakathi kokubeka umntwana.
Ngaba isithintelo sesithintelo sesithintelo?
Ngoku ke masibuyele "kwiingcebiso ezifanelekileyo". Oososayensi banamhlanje baye bafakazela ukuba ukuqhubeka nokunyusa umntwana kunye nobisi babo ngokufika kwexesha kunokunceda kwaye kuyimfuneko. Ingcamango yobisi ayitshintshi konke, njengezixhobo zayo zondlo. Zigwebe ngokwakho, ukuba ubisi lushintshe ingcamango yakhe kuba buhlungu (njengokuba oomama nogogo bathi ngale nto), umntwana uya kukwenzela ibele ngokuzimela. Yaye uhlobo kuleso simo luye lwabonelela, ukuba ukuhamba kweentsuku ezibalulekileyo zobisi kuza kutshiswa ebusweni. Kodwa okwenzekayo, akunjalo? Ukuxela kunye nokondla ngesifuba kuyafana, kwaye uhlobo kulolu hlobo lubandakanywa ukuba luqhubeke nokutya kwesondlo, kunokuyeka.
