what's the meaning of after reflecting? and what does take a shift mean here?

Answer

It means, "after thinking about it a lot" or "after giving it a lot of consideration"

The word "reflect" is often used to mean "think about" or "think deeply about something."

Answer

Sorry, I forgot to answer the second question:

Take a shift means "take a turn." If you think about a job at a hotel, there needs to be someone at the front desk 24 hours per day. Therefore, they have a morning shift, an evening shift, an overnight shift.

So in the context of your paragraph, it means taking the responsibility for a period of time.

Answer

to "take a shift" means to allow someone else to feed the baby. In this context, taking care of a child is like work. But you can't work 24 hours a day. So the mother should allow someone else to "take a shift", or to spend several hours with the baby, so she can rest.
