Correct Answer: C
Rationale:
Correct
Answer: C - You should wear a snug-fitting bra continuously for 72 hours.
Rationale:
1. Wearing a snug-fitting bra helps provide pressure and support to breasts, which can help minimize milk production and engorgement.
2. Continuous wearing of the bra for 72 hours ensures consistent pressure on the breasts to suppress lactation.
3. This method is non-invasive and does not involve manual expression or additional treatments, making it a simple and effective approach.

Choices:
A: Limiting fluid intake could lead to dehydration and is not recommended for postpartum women.
