Exercise 24

Dora is expecting her baby in about a month. She is deciding whether to breast-feed or bottle-feed. You are her physician. First describe how milk is produced and ejected from the mam- mary glands. Then, describe the advantages of breast-feeding, and explain the circumstances in which you would recom- mend bottle-feeding to Dora instead.
