Abstract

The continuance of the human race depends upon babies being fed in such a way as to ensure survival and this perhaps explains the interest felt by relatives, friends and neighbours, not to mention often complete strangers, when a baby is born. The mother is besieged by questions about how the baby is being fed and, not surprisingly, is highly likely to become obsessed with her baby's food.
