Which action by the mother will initiate the milk ejection reflex (MER)?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Placing the infant to the breast triggers the release of oxytocin, which then initiates the milk ejection reflex (MER) and causes the milk to flow from the milk ducts into the nipple. Wearing a firm-fitting bra or applying cool packs to the breast will not stimulate the release of oxytocin, and although drinking plenty of fluids is important for maintaining milk supply, it does not directly initiate the MER.
