Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A Breastfeeding is contraindicated when mothers have certain viruses, are under-going chemotherapy, or are using/abusing drugs.
B This may be an honest reason for not breastfeeding, although further education concerning the ease of breastfeeding and its convenience, benefits, and adapta-bility (expressing milk into bottles) might change some minds. In any case, the nurse must provide information in a nonjudgmental manner and respect the mother's decision.
C This may be a reason for not breastfeeding, although further education concern-ing the ease of breastfeeding and its convenience, benefits, and adaptability (ex-pressing milk into bottles) might change some minds. In any case, the nurse must provide information in a nonjudgmental manner and respect the mother's decision.
D For the first-time mother, breastfeeding may initially appear to be more difficult. With appropriate education regarding convenience and cost advantages of breastfeeding, some may change their minds. In any case, the nurse should pro-vide this information in a nonjudgmental manner and respect the mother's deci-sion.
