When an infant suckles at the breast "there is a large outpouring of 19
different gastrointestinal hormones in both the mother and infant . . .
which stimulate growth of the baby's and mother's intestinal villi and
increase the surface area and the absorption of calories with each
feeding (Kennell and Klaus 7)."
