Leaving an infant on a bed unattended is never acceptable,for various safety reasons.Holding and cuddling the infant after feeding and reading a magazine while the infant sleeps are appropriate parent-infant interactions.Changing the diaper and then showing the nurse the contents of the diaper is appropriate because the mother is seeking approval from the nurse and notifying the nurse of the infant's elimination patterns.
