A nurse is educating a client on breastfeeding positions.
Which of the following should the nurse discuss?
Supine.
Cradle.
Upright with chin support.
Over-the-shoulder.
The Correct Answer is B
Choice A rationale
The supine position is not recommended for breastfeeding because it can lead to issues with latching and milk flow, making it uncomfortable and potentially unsafe.
Choice B rationale
The cradle position is a common and effective breastfeeding position where the baby's head rests in the crook of the mother's arm, allowing for close contact and support.
Choice C rationale
Upright with chin support is not a standard breastfeeding position and may not provide the necessary support or alignment for effective breastfeeding.
Choice D rationale
Over-the-shoulder is also not a recommended breastfeeding position as it is impractical and does not facilitate proper latching or feeding.
