Question 2 of 5
A mother is breastfeeding her newborn son and is experiencing signs of her breasts feeling tender and full in between infant feedings. She asks if there are any suggestions that you can provide to help alleviate this physical complaint. The ideal nursing response would be to
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because the patient may be experiencing signs of engorgement, and placing the infant to feed more frequently may help prevent physical complaints of tenderness due to milk accumulation.
