Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A Stimulating the breast for less than 5 minutes will not produce the extra milk the
infant may need.
B If the infant's mouth does not cover as much of the areola as possible, the
pressure during sucking will be applied to the nipple, causing trauma to the area.
C Assessing the nipples for trauma is important, but it will not prevent sore
nipples.
D Soap can be drying to the nipples and should be avoided during breastfeeding.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback
A Allowing the parents to remain with the child may help calm the child.
B Include parents as partners in the child's treatments. Parents may need direct
guidance in concrete terms to help distract the child.

a trusting relationship.
D Professional terminology may not be understood. Speak to the child and family
in language that they will understand.
