Popis: Cortisol’s concentration in breast milk of mothers ( N =32) was found positively correlated with maternal self-reported hostility, and with neonatal performance on the NBAS Autonomic Stability cluster. Greater Secretory Immunoglobulin A (SIgA) in milk was linked with mothers’ heightened depression, and with neonates’ superior NBAS Orientation scores.
