A nurse is observing bonding between a client and her newborn. Which of the following actions by the client requires the nurse to intervene?

A. Holding the newborn in an en face position: Positioning the newborn face-to-face with the parent promotes eye contact and bonding. This action supports healthy attachment and is encouraged during early interactions. B. Asking the father to change the newborn's diaper: Involving another caregiver in newborn care is appropriate and promotes family bonding. It does not indicate a problem with maternal-infant attachment. C. Viewing the newborn's actions to be uncooperative: Interpreting normal newborn behaviors, such as crying or squirming, as deliberate uncooperativeness may indicate difficulty in bonding or unrealistic expectations. The nurse should intervene to provide guidance on normal newborn behavior and support attachment. D. Requesting the nurse take the newborn to the nursery so she can rest: Asking for rest is appropriate, especially if the mother is fatigued. Temporary separation does not negatively impact bonding if the mother is able to interact and care for the newborn afterward.
