A new mother asks the nurse what the "experts say" about the best way to feed her infant. Which recommendation of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) regarding infant nutrition should be shared with this client?
Infants fed on formula should be started on solid food sooner than breastfed infants
Infants should be given only human milk for the first 6 months of life.
After 6 months, mothers should shift from breast milk to cow's milk
If infants are weaned from breast milk before 12 months, then they should receive cow's milk, not formula.
The Correct Answer is B
A. The introduction of solid food is recommended at similar times for both breastfed and formula-fed infants.
B. The AAP recommends exclusive human milk feeding for the first 6 months of life.
C. After 6 months, complementary foods are introduced, not a shift to cow's milk.
D. If weaned before 12 months, formula is a suitable alternative to breast milk.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A. The uterine fundus is expected to be at the level of the umbilicus after delivery and descends approximately one fingerbreadth (or 1 cm) per day after delivery.
B. The uterine fundus would be too high for this time frame.
C. The fundus should reach the level of the symphysis pubis by 10 days postpartum.
D. The uterine fundus should not be palpated to the right of the umbilicus; it should be midline or slightly to the right. A lateral displacement of the fundus may indicate a full bladder, which can interfere with uterine contraction and increase the risk of bleeding.
Correct Answer is ["50"]
Explanation
To calculate the infusion rate for antibiotic X, the nurse needs to use the formula: gtt/min = (Volume x Drop factor) / Time
Plugging in the values from the question, we get:
gtt/min = (50 mL x 20 gtt/mL) / 20 min Simplifying, we get:
gtt/min = 1000 gtt / 20 min Dividing, we get:
gtt/min = 50 gtt/min
Therefore, the nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver 50 gtt/min.
