SOLVED3569

A mother who has diabetes mellitus inquiries about the possibility of breastfeeding her baby. The nurse practitioner appropriately educates her that: a. Breastfeeding is contraindicated because antidiabetic medications are secreted in breast milk, placing the infant at risk for hypoglycemia. b. Due to postpartum hormonal changes, she is already at high risk for hypoglycemia. Breastfeeding drastically increases that risk, thus outweighing the benefits, c. The metabolic demand is high, but with proper nutrition and frequent glucose monitoring, breastfeeding is encouraged. d. Breastfeeding is acceptable, but only if she is taking insulin, not oral antihyperglycemic agents.
