The admired Toast of the Town cannot endure the Trouble of nursing. It would confine her too much at home—it has too vulgar an appearance—it is not warranted by _the Example_ of the first Circle—the Milk must _therefore_ be backen’d.—It is denied Liberty to discharge itself by the Out-lett Providence _intended for it_—the Child, whose Constitution _it was calculated for_, is not suffered to have it’s Due. What becomes of the Milk? It is absorb’d by the lymphatic Vessels, _contrary_ to the _original_ Intention of Nature—and convey’d back into the Blood, in the manner I have before described.—What is the Consequence?—The blood Vessels become _not only highly over-charged_ with Blood, but that Blood is thus rendered of an improper Consistence. A Fever ensues!—This Fever comes on when the woman is _ill able to bear_ it’s Shock!—_How often_ is this Fever _fatal_! The most fortunate Circumstance that can happen, is, when the Milk finds _ANOTHER out-lett_. Probably _otherwise_ there may be a formation of Matter somewhere—there is danger _that_ Matter may fly to some capital Part. If the Woman is young, healthy, strong, it is most probable the Milk will _not_ be absorb’d _quick enough_. The Blood will _furnish_ Milk _faster_ than the lymphatick Vessels can imbibe it, and convey it back again. The Breasts are painfully distended—they inflame. _When too late_—it is then resolved they shall be suck’d. During the time of Pregnancy a small quantity of Milk is lodged in the Milk Vessels of the Breasts. This Milk, when the nine Months are expired, is thick—clogs the Vessels. If the Woman never gave suck, the Pores through which the Milk ought to issue to the Child, are not open enough—they require therefore _to be clear’d_, by the _old_ Milk being suck’d off, _the very day of the Delivery_, and to empty the Milk Vessels of what must otherwise clog them. Some woman ought to suck this off therefore _as soon as possible_. If the Child is put to the Breast _in Twelve, or Sixteen Hours_ after it’s Birth, it will suck _greedily_—if delay’d three or four Days, it is twenty to one the Child will not attempt it for a long time.
