Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The nipple of the bottle should be kept full of formula to reduce the amount of air the infant swallows.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Breastfeeding mothers may have more afterpains because infant suckling causes the posterior pituitary to release oxytocin, which is a hormone that contracts the uterus.
