Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Alternating breasts for feeding increases milk production, particularly hindmilk, which has a higher protein and fat content.

The initial vaginal discharge after delivery is called lochia rubra. It is red and moderately heavy. Lochia rubra lasts for up to 3 days postpartum.
