The nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client in the postpartum period who is breastfeeding and has breast engorgement. Which of the following information should the nurse include?
- A. Apply ice packs to your breasts for 15 to 20 minutes before breastfeeding
- B. Allow your baby to nurse for at least 10 to 15 minutes on each breast
- C. Temporarily decrease the frequency of your breastfeeding
- D. Avoid taking NSAIDs for discomfort while breastfeeding
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Nursing for 10-15 minutes per breast relieves engorgement by emptying milk ducts. Ice packs are used after, not before, feeding; decreasing frequency worsens engorgement; and NSAIDs are safe for breastfeeding.
