What if the sow does not eat after delivery?

Postpartum fasting of sows is a common disease, and many sows eat normally during pregnancy, but after a lifetime, piglets refuse to eat anorexia or only eat good palatable food, resulting in poor growth of lactating piglets. To deal with postpartum non-eating of sows, we should start with feeding and management. let's take a look at how sows don't eat after birth.

The reason why sows don't eat after delivery.

1. Calcium deficiency: lack of calcium or improper proportion of calcium and phosphorus in diet, lack of sunshine or lack of exercise can reduce the concentration of blood calcium, slow gastrointestinal peristalsis, and serious dyskinesia if the course of disease is long.

2. Vitamin B1 deficiency: vitamin B1 can excite the intestines and stomach and strengthen its peristaltic and secretory function. when lacking, it can cause gastrointestinal peristalsis, decreased gastric juice secretion, decreased appetite and digestive disorders.

3. Postpartum infection: postpartum uterine inflammation or systemic infection in sows leads to elevated body temperature, mental depression, affecting appetite or drinking appetite.

4. Postpartum weakness: postpartum weakness caused by malnutrition, physical weakness, excessive fatigue during delivery, loss of blood during delivery, loss of qi and blood, etc., resulting in loss of appetite.

5. Gastrointestinal nerve disorder: gastrointestinal nerve disorder occurs in parturient sows. Sympathetic nerve is excited due to pain and fatigue, parasympathetic nerve is highly inhibited, gastrointestinal peristalsis and secretion function are extremely decreased, and appetite decreases.

Prevention of sows not eating after parturition

1. Prenatal: pregnant sows are fed with high quality, safety and full price, rich in premix products including vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and other vitamins, exercise and receive full sunlight at the same time.

2. During delivery: after the first pair of nipples of pregnant sows can extrude milk, injection of oxytocin and administration of rapeseed seeds can accelerate the birth, promote the excretion of placenta and the excretion of uterine lochia.

3. Postpartum: giving high-quality, full-price feed combined with "Danggui Buxue decoction" or "Shenghua Powder", taking yeast tablets, lactobacillus tablets, artificial salt and so on, will help to increase appetite, postpartum recovery and purify the uterus.
