New mother preparing formula
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is providing discharge teaching regarding formula preparation for a new mother. Which guideline would the nurse include in the teaching plan?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Do not add cereal to the formula in the bottle or sweeten the formula with honey. This guideline is crucial because adding cereal to the formula can increase the risk of choking and aspiration in infants. Honey should also be avoided in infants under 1 year old due to the risk of botulism.
Choice B is incorrect because washing bottles and nipples in the dishwasher is safe as long as they are sanitized properly.
Choice C is incorrect because ready-to-feed formula should be stored in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours, not 24 hours.
Choice D is incorrect because warming formula in a microwave can create hot spots that can burn the baby's mouth. It is safer to warm the bottle in a container of hot water to ensure even heating.
