A mother is attempting to breastfeed her infant in the hospital setting. The infant is sleepy and displays some audible swallowing, the maternal nipples are flat, and the breasts are soft.
 
  The nurse has attempted to teach the mother positioning on one side, and now the mother wants to place the infant to the breast on the other side. Based on LATCH scores, the nurse would designate a score of:
 
  a. 10 and document findings in the chart.
  b. 6 and further teach and assist the mother in feeding activities.
  c. 5 and tell the mother to discontinue feeding attempts at this time because the infant is too sleepy.
  d. 8 and no further assistance is needed for feeding.
