A first-time parent is pending discharge from the hospital with a well-newborn. What information should the nurse include in the discharge teaching to the parents?
Explanation & Rationale
A. While newborns need to feed frequently, particularly breastfed infants, parents do not need to wake their baby for every feeding unless advised by their healthcare provider due to specific concerns like low birth weight. B. After birth, the newborn receives initial vaccinations, such as the hepatitis B vaccine. The next set of vaccinations is typically administered at the 1 or 2-month check-up, so no additional immunizations are needed immediately after discharge. C. Full head control is generally achieved by around 4 months of age, not 1 month. D. Babies typically triple their birth weight by around 12 months of age, not by 4-6 months.
