The nurse overhears the new parents discussing the care of the newborn. The father is heard to say, We want to be careful not to spoil the baby by holding him too much.
 
   The nurse will want to provide anticipatory guidance and might respond by saying: 1. You are so right. A spoiled baby is hard to manage. Only pick the baby up when he needs to be fed.
  2. It is important that the baby learns to soothe himself, so wait at least 15 minutes before you respond to his cries.
  3. When the baby cries, offer him the bottle. If that doesn't work, put him in his bed to cry it out.
  4. Don't worry about spoiling the baby by holding him. You will find both the baby and you will be better satisfied if you respond to the baby's cries quickly and soothe him with your presence, voice, and touch.
