Rationale: The most appropriate statistic to reflect the nutritional status of a population is the 1-4 year old age-specific mortality rate. This age group is highly susceptible to the effects of malnutrition, so a population with poor nutritional status is likely to have a high 1-4 year old age-specific mortality rate, also known as child mortality rate.

Lactation typically starts 1 to 3 days after delivery, not immediately. Nipple stretching exercises are recommended for flat or inverted nipples, not everted ones. Excessive washing of the nipples can dry them out, increasing the risk of fissures.
