Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching about how to suppress lactation with a client who is postpartum and bottle feeding her newborn. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
Correct
Answer: A: You should wear a snug-fitting bra continuously for 72 hours.
Rationale: Wearing a snug-fitting bra provides support and pressure on the breasts, which helps to suppress lactation. This continuous pressure helps to decrease milk production by limiting the milk ducts' ability to refill. By wearing the bra for 72 hours, the client can effectively suppress lactation.
Summary of other choices:
B: Applying moist heat to the breasts can actually stimulate milk production rather than suppress it.
C: Limiting fluid intake to 1 liter per day is not recommended as it can lead to dehydration and does not directly impact lactation suppression.
D: Manually expressing milk when engorgement occurs can stimulate further milk production, which goes against the goal of lactation suppression.
