Answer to Question 1
A, B, E
Prompt, gentle cleaning with water and mild soap (Dove, Neutrogena Baby Soap) after each voiding or defecation rids the skin of ammonia and other irritants and decreases the chance of skin breakdown and infection. A bland, protective ointment (A&D, Balmex, Desitin, zinc oxide) can be applied to clean, dry, intact skin to help prevent diaper rash. If cloth diapers are laundered at home, the parents should wash them in hot water, using a mild soap and double rinsing. Occlusion increases the risk of systemic absorption of steroid; thus steroid creams are rarely used for diaper dermatitis because the diaper functions as an occlusive dressing. Rubber or plastic pants increase skin breakdown by holding in moisture and should be used infrequently.

A trait of a healthy family is that adults agree on the basic principles of parenting so that minimal discord exists. A significant stressor for families is lack of shared responsibility in the family. Lack of flexibility in parental tasks is likely to create stress and conflict. Admitting to and seeking help with problems, rather than refusing assistance, is a trait of a healthy family. Adjusting to the birth of a child is a significant change for a family. A sense of feeling overwhelmed by this change indicates that the family is not coping effectively.
