Practice Question
A nurse is caring for a client who is postpartum. The nurse should recognize which of the following statements by the client as a possible indicator of inhibition of parental attachment?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
"Do you think you could keep him in the nursery for the next feeding so I can get some sleep?.".
Rationale:
🛏️ Requesting the nursery to feed the baby can suggest difficulty in bonding and attachment.
🍼 Early parental attachment is critical, and avoidance of caring for the newborn can be an early indicator of attachment issues.
🛏️ Comments about physical appearance ("more hair") or noticing features like "husband’s nose" indicate some emotional connection and are not considered warning signs.
