The mother of a 2-day-old male has been informed that her child has sepsis. The mother is distraught and says, I should have known that something was wrong. Why didn't I see that he was so sick? The nurse's best reply is:
 
  1. Newborns have immature immune function at birth, and illness is very hard to detect.
  2. Your mothering skills will improve with time. You should take the newborn class.
  3. Your baby didn't get enough active acquired immunity from you during the pregnancy.
  4. The immunity your baby gets in utero doesn't start to function until he is 48 weeks old.
