Dear parents, Mother's milk is boon to baby by almighty. How milk is produced you should know? When Baby sucks nipple a stimuli goes to pituitary glands and 2 harmones are released one is prolactin and other is oxytocin. The more the demand more prolactin is produced and more milk is made. Oxytocin releases formed milk from alveoli when demand. Your role is to take adequate diet And liquid to meet out yours and Baby needs.
