Bottle-nosed dolphins, being mammals, will reproduce internally and give birth to a single live young tail first. Females carry their young for 12 months. They breed all year though in some locations a basic breeding season has been noted. females initiate mating and the male will adopt an s-stance before mating with his head up and flukes down.
When the baby is born, it is often helped to the surface by aunts or 'nurses'. The baby nurses from their mother by latching onto nipples just under their mother. near the tail. The mother has special muscles that squirt milk into the baby's mouth.
Bottle Nosed Dolphins bear a calf about ever 2 years.

There is this little sea fairy that goes around and magically puts a little dolphin inside every female dolphin, and when it matures and is ready to be born it swims out backwards...

Just like humans...they do a little dance, make a little love... Then they give live birth to their offspring... This is why they are considered mammals and not fish!

They mate much like any mammal. As an interesting tidbit, they are one of the only mammals, other than humans, that mate for pleasure as well as reproduction. Go Flipper!!!!

Intercoarse, bearing live young, and helping the calf breathe until it can do it. They cooperate, and the pack protects the young from sharks by attacking the sharks gills, ramming them.

They have sex. Hot, steamy dolphin sex.
Sorry...
They are mammals, so they give live birth and nurse their young.
