role. Each adult sees parenthood in a different light. They cannot be compared. Searching out

resources for the parents is an important task. However, the nurse should not give her

personal number to clients.

To promote bonding and attachment immediately after birth, which action should the nurse

take?




a. Assist the mother in feeding her baby.


b. Allow the mother quiet time with her infant.


c. Teach the mother about the concepts of bonding and attachment.


d. Assist the mother in assuming an en face position with her newborn. Correct Ans-D




Assisting the mother in assuming an en face position with her newborn will support the

bonding process. After birth is a good time to initiate breastfeeding, but first the mother

needs time to explore the new infant and begin the bonding process. The mother should be

given as much privacy as possible; however, nursing assessments must still be continued

during this critical time. The mother has just delivered and is more focused on the infant; she

will not be receptive to teaching at this time.

d. Behavior by the infant during the sensitive period to elicit feelings of "falling in love" from

the parents Correct Ans-B

Before giving a PP client the rubella vaccine, which of the following facts should the nurse

include in client teaching?




1. The vaccine is safe in clients with egg allergies


2. Breast-feeding isn't compatible with the vaccine


3. Transient arthralgia and rash are common adverse effects


4. The client should avoid getting pregnant for 3 months after the vaccine because the vaccine

has teratogenic effects Correct Ans-4. The client must understand that she must not

become pregnant for 3 months after the vaccination because of its potential teratogenic

effects. The rubella vaccine is made from duck eggs so an allergic reaction may occur in clients

with egg allergies. The virus is not transmitted into the breast milk, so clients may continue to

breastfeed after the vaccination. Transient arthralgia and rash are common adverse effects of

the vaccine.




The best way for the nurse to promote and support the maternal-infant bonding process is to:




a. Help the mother identify her positive feelings toward the newborn.


b. Encourage the mother to provide all newborn care.


c. Assist the family with rooming-in.
