Nurse Diamond explains which option as being a good beverage choice for her toddler?

Choice A rationale

Performing ROM exercises can cause stress on the infant's developing bones and muscles and is not the priority for spina bifida.

Choice B rationale

Feeding through an NG tube is not necessary unless the infant has feeding difficulties related to spina bifida.

Choice C rationale

Placing the infant in a prone position prevents pressure on the lesion, reducing the risk of injury and infection.

Choice D rationale

Covering the lesion with a dry cloth can cause the area to dry out and is not recommended; sterile, moist dressings are preferred.

Choice A rationale

Introducing well-cooked table foods should begin around 8-10 months of age when the baby is ready for finger foods and has developed better chewing skills.

Choice B rationale

Starting solid foods at 3 months old is too early and can interfere with breastfeeding or formula feeding, increasing the risk of allergies and digestive issues.

Choice C rationale

Cow's milk should not be introduced until 12 months of age, as infants need the nutrients from breast milk or formula during their first year for optimal growth.

Choice D rationale

It is recommended to wait until the baby is at least 6 months old before introducing fruit juice, and even then, it should be given in limited quantities to avoid excessive sugar intake.
