A nurse is reinforcing teaching with the guardian of a 2-month-old infant about immunizations. Which of the following statements by a guardian indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A) "My baby will receive the rotavirus immunization orally.": This statement is correct. The rotavirus vaccine is given orally in two or three doses depending on the specific vaccine used (Rotarix or RotaTeq). The vaccine is administered in the mouth and helps protect against rotavirus infections, which can cause severe diarrhea in infants and young children. B) "I should expect my baby to have a high fever for 24 hours after an immunization.": This statement is incorrect. While it is common for infants to experience mild side effects after immunizations, such as a low-grade fever or irritability, a high fever is not typically expected. If the baby develops a high fever (above 100.4°F), the guardian should seek advice from the healthcare provider, as it could indicate a reaction or infection. C) "I should not feed my baby anything for hours prior to an immunization.": This statement is incorrect. There is no need to withhold feeding before an immunization, and the baby should be fed as usual. In fact, feeding the infant before the appointment may help comfort them and reduce stress during the visit. D) "My baby will receive three doses of the meningococcal immunization before kindergarten.": This statement is incorrect. The meningococcal vaccine is typically administered starting at age 11, with a second dose given at age 16. For infants and young children, the vaccine is not part of the routine immunization schedule. Meningococcal vaccination before kindergarten is not recommended for infants at 2 months of age.
