Question 2

Carrie is days away from delivering her first baby. She has been contemplating breastfeeding for its nutritional and immunological benefits, and has been reading about breastfeeding and talking to mothers who breastfed their babies. The birthing center where she receives prenatal care, and where she will deliver her baby, has scheduled Carrie to meet with its lactation expert. Carrie has read the birthing center's Guide to Successful Breastfeeding, and is prepared to ask the lactation expert about relaxation techniques. Not only is Carrie high-strung by nature, but she is quite anxious about the childbirth process, let alone the prospect of breastfeeding. Imagine you are the lactation expert who is counseling Carrie.
Carrie begins breastfeeding but her nipples quickly become sore. A likely cause is:

a. her infant's rooting reflex.
b. her maternal let-down reflex.
c. improper feeding position.
d. an inverted areola.
