A nurse is assisting in planning care for a newborn who is experiencing neonatal abstinence syndrome. Which of the following actions should the nurse recommend?

(A) Restrict fluids to 1,000 mL/day:
Restricting fluids may lead to dehydration, which can exacerbate nausea and other symptoms of morning sickness. It is important for pregnant individuals to stay hydrated, so fluid restriction is not recommended unless otherwise directed by a healthcare provider.

(B) Take an over-the-counter antacid:
While antacids may provide relief for heartburn or indigestion, they are not typically recommended as a first-line treatment for nausea associated with morning sickness. Antacids may have limited effectiveness in managing nausea, and their use should be guided by a healthcare provider.

(C) Increase intake of fresh fruits:
While fresh fruits are nutritious and provide essential vitamins and minerals, they may not be well-tolerated by individuals experiencing morning sickness, especially if they have strong flavors or odors. Encouraging the client to eat bland foods in the morning may be more effective in managing nausea during early pregnancy.

(D) Eat dry, bland foods in the morning:
Encouraging the client to eat dry, bland foods in the morning can help alleviate nausea associated with morning sickness. These foods are generally easier on the stomach and less likely to trigger nausea compared to richer or spicier foods. Examples include crackers, toast, or dry cereal. Eating small, frequent meals throughout the day can also help manage nausea associated with pregnancy.

(A) Lie in a left side lying position for 30 min after meals:
While lying on the left side can sometimes help alleviate heartburn, it's generally recommended to elevate the head and upper body during sleep, especially if heartburn worsens at night. Lying down immediately after meals can actually exacerbate heartburn symptoms.

(B) Drink a cup of black coffee before breakfast:
Drinking black coffee can exacerbate heartburn symptoms due to its acidic nature and caffeine content. It is not recommended for individuals experiencing frequent heartburn, especially during pregnancy.

(C) Take sips of milk between meals:
Taking sips of milk between meals can help neutralize stomach acid and provide temporary relief from heartburn symptoms. However, it's essential to avoid drinking large quantities of milk at once, as this can lead to increased stomach acid production.

(D) Eat three large meals per day:
Eating large meals can increase pressure on the stomach and exacerbate heartburn symptoms. Instead of consuming three large meals, it's better to eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to help prevent heartburn.
