Rationale 1: Infant positioning is a critical factor in nipple soreness. Changing positions alters the focus of greatest stress and promotes more complete breast emptying.
Rationale 2: Using a breast shield is not a critical factor in alleviating nipple soreness.
Rationale 3: Using breast pads is not a critical factor in alleviating nipple soreness.
Rationale 4: The type of soap used is not a critical factor in nipple soreness.
