Practice Question

Correct Answer:
"I will tip the nipple so air is present as my baby sucks."
Rationale:
🔹 Introducing air into the nipple during feeding can cause the baby to swallow air, leading to gas and discomfort.
🔹 The nipple should be kept completely filled with milk or formula during feeding to minimize air intake.
🔹 Keeping the baby's head elevated and burping frequently are correct feeding practices.
🔹 Soft, formed yellow stools are normal for a healthy newborn.
🔹 This statement indicates a need for further teaching about proper bottle feeding technique.
