The Nurse Is Working with a Mother Who Has Just

The nurse is working with a mother who has just delivered her third child at 33 weeks' gestation. The mother says to the nurse, "This baby doesn't turn her head and suck like the older two children did. Why?" What is the best response by the nurse?

A) "Every baby is different. This is just one variation of normal that we see on a regular basis."
B) "This baby might not have a rooting or sucking reflex because she is premature."
C) "When she is wide awake and alert, she will probably root and suck even if she is early."
D) "She might be too tired from the birthing process and need a couple of days to recover."
