Answer to Question 1
C
Feedback:
An area that needs additional research is finding effective stimuli to encourage women to bring children for health maintenance visits. The mother losing income because of missing work for well-baby visits will deter health maintenance visits for the baby going forward. This mother's issue does not indicate that the mother needs to find another job, that the mother's income is more important that the baby's health, or that the federal government needs to do more to support well-baby visits.
Answer to Question 2
D

A Although it is important for the mother to obtain enough rest, she should not
distance herself from family and friends. Her spouse or partner can communicate
the best visiting times so that the new mother can obtain adequate rest. It is also
important that she not isolate herself at home by herself during this time of role
adjustment.
B Even if breastfeeding, other family members can participate in the infant's care.
If depression occurs, the symptoms can often interfere with mothering functions
and this support will be essential.
C The new mother should share her feelings with someone else. It is also important
that she not overcommit herself or feel as though she has to be superwoman. A
telephone call to the hospital warm line may provide reassurance with lactation
issues and other infant care questions. Should symptoms continue, a referral to a
professional therapist may be necessary.
D Should the new mother experience symptoms of the baby blues, it is important
that she be aware that this is nothing to be ashamed of.
