Answer to Question 1
D
Feedback:
When a mother is first attempting to breastfeed, lying on the side with a pillow under the head is a good position to use because it relieves fatigue and allows the infant to rest on the bed and not on the mother. Stroking the cheek will cause the infant to turn away from the breast. Infants should grasp the nipple areola with the mouth. Most new mothers need some instruction and help.
Answer to Question 2
B
Feedback:
Breast milk is formed in the acinar cells of the mammary glands and begins production after the delivery of the placenta. When the progesterone level falls, the production of prolactin is stimulated, which cause breast milk to be made. The nurse can discuss the patient's concern; it does not need to be discussed with the physician. Supplementing a breastfeeding baby with formula is not recommended. The nurse's comment about milk production and the frequency of feeding does not address the mother's concern.
