A nurse is teaching car seat safety to a parent of an infant who weighs 4.5 kg (10 lb). Which of the following car seat positions should the nurse include in the teaching?

A. Discouraging daily fruit juice intakE. While excessive fruit juice intake can contribute to weight gain and dental caries, it's not the priority nursing intervention in this scenario.

B. Increasing the number of breastfeedings: Breastfeeding frequency may be appropriate, but without more information about the child's current feeding patterns and growth trajectory, it's not the priority intervention.

C. Discussing the child's feeding patterns: This is the priority intervention because it allows the nurse to assess the child's current feeding habits, including frequency, duration, and type of feedings, to determine if they are appropriate for the child's growth and development.

D. Talking about solid food consumption: Solid food introduction is typically recommended around 6 months of age, but the priority in this scenario is to assess the current feeding

patterns before discussing solid food introduction.

A. Eruption of the last four molars: This characteristic typically occurs during adolescence but may vary individually. However, it is not universal among all teenagers and does not apply to both genders equally.

B. Increased shoulder, chest, and hip widths: During adolescence, both boys and girls experience growth spurts, leading to increased shoulder, chest, and hip widths as part of their overall physical development.

C. Decreased respiratory rates of 15 to 20 breaths per minutE. Respiratory rates in teenagers generally remain within the normal adult range, typically between 12 and 20 breaths per minute. There is no consistent decrease in respiratory rates during adolescence.

D. Fully functioning sweat and sebaceous glands: Sweat and sebaceous glands are typically fully developed and functional by adolescence. This characteristic is not specific to teenagers but applies to individuals of all ages once these glands have matured.
