Practice Question
A nurse providing care to a client who has given birth vaginally to a healthy term newborn is teaching the client about measures to promote the newborn's health. The nurse determines that additional teaching is needed based on which client statement?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
"For the first 2 weeks, I will let my newborn sleep with me in my bed."
Rationale:
💎Bed-sharing increases risks of suffocation, entrapment, and SIDS, so it is not recommended at any time, including the first two weeks.
💎The safe-sleep practice is room-sharing without bed-sharing on a firm, flat sleep surface that meets safety standards.
💎Place the newborn supine (on the back) for every sleep with no soft bedding, pillows, or stuffed toys in the sleep area.
💎Breastfeeding and avoiding smoke exposure/overheating further reduce sleep-related infant deaths.
💎Joining new-parent groups and committing to breastfeeding are supportive choices, but sleep location must still follow safe-sleep guidelines.
