Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

C
Oxytocin, which causes the milk let-down reflex, increases in response to nipple stimulation.
A firm bra is important to support the breast, but will not initiate the let-down reflex.
Drinking plenty of fluids is necessary for adequate milk production but will not initiate the let-down reflex.
Cool packs to the breast will decrease the let-down reflex.
