C
S. feed from one breast until the breast is empty
D
The. yes because it meets the need of the baby
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Let your baby stay at the first breast until either the breast is very soft or your baby is full. If your baby is not satisfied with the first breast, offer the second breast. Try nursing on only one breast at each feeding, if possible.

Detailed explanation-2: -Yes. It is possible for your baby to be fully breastfed using one breast. This is a normal situation for some mums. They just decide to stick with the breast that makes more milk.

Detailed explanation-3: -How do I know whether my breasts are empty? There’s no test or way to know for sure. In general, though, if you gently shake your breasts and they feel mostly soft and you don’t feel the heaviness of milk sitting in them, you’re probably fine.

Detailed explanation-4: -If a woman can’t pump, engorgement can lead to plugged ducts, mastitis and even abscesses, sometimes requiring hospitalization and intravenous antibiotics.
