After breastfeeding for 10 minutes on each breast, a new mother calls the nurse to the postpartum room to assist with changing the newborn's diaper.As the mother begins the diaper change, the newborn regurgitates the breast milk. What should be the nurse's first action?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Sit the newborn upright and burp by gently rubbing or patting the upper back is the most appropriate first action. This position helps bring up any air swallowed during feeding, reducing the likelihood of spitting up. Gently rubbing or patting the back encourages the burp reflex.
