The nurse understands that the child is at increased risk for which developmental problem?

A. While establishing trust is important in caregiving, it might not be the primary focus in health promotion teaching for toddlers.
B. Managing tantrums is valuable information for parents of toddlers to help them understand and address challenging behavior effectively.
C. Dental care is crucial in toddlers to promote good oral hygiene and prevent dental issues.

A. Placing the baby on a soft mattress with a firm, flat pillow can increase the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Infants should sleep on a firm mattress without pillows or soft bedding to reduce the risk of suffocation.
B. Placing the head of the bed near the window for fresh air is not recommended due to potential drafts, temperature changes, or exposure to outdoor elements that might disturb the baby's sleep.
C. Waking a sleeping baby for feedings is generally not advised. Babies will wake on their own when hungry, and consistent nighttime feedings are essential, especially for a 3-week-old infant.
However, advice on this may vary based on the infant's individual health and weight gain, and it's best to follow the pediatrician's guidance.
D. Placing the baby on his or her back when sleeping is the recommended sleep position to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). This practice is endorsed by pediatric healthcare professionals and is considered a critical guideline for safe infant sleep.
