Figure 8

Bar plot for overall mean breast-milk volume on day 4 in two treatment groups (Skin-to-skin gr. and Mother's arms gr.) in primi- (a) and multiparous (b) mothers, who's babies were exposed or not to early suckling (suckling within first two hours after birth) (means and SE). Milk volume was significantly higher if babies had early suckling, both in primiparous (ANOVA F1,34 = 4.63, p value = 0.0386) and multiparous mothers (ANOVA F1,33 = 9.0, p value = 0.0051).
