Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A Correct. Feeding time is crucial to the development of the caregiver-newborn attachment, since it is time for the newborn and caregiver to interact and learn about each other. If the newborn remains in the crib or in an infant seat with the bottle propped, the attachment process can be delayed.
B Incorrect. If the nurse observes the mother of a newborn feeding the newborn in the infant seat with the bottle propped, it is not appropriate to congratulate the mother for finding a safe place for the baby to take the bottle.
C Incorrect. If the nurse observes the mother of a newborn feeding the newborn in the infant seat with the bottle propped, it is not appropriate to tell the mother that this procedure encourages independence in the newborn.
D Incorrect. If the nurse observes the mother of a newborn feeding the newborn in the infant seat with the bottle propped, it is not appropriate to suggest that the mother let the older children hold the bottle for the baby in the infant seat.
