While changing the diaper on a newborn in the presence of the mother, the nurse notes a belly binder wrapped around the umbilical cord. When questioned, the mother states this is the way the umbilical area is cared for in her culture.
 
  The nurse should: 1. Accept this practice as a cultural variation and allow the mother to care for the umbilicus.
  2. Explain to the mother the risks associated with belly binders and encourage her to remove it.
  3. Remove the belly binder and discard it.
  4. Replace the belly binder with a coin as a safer cultural practice.
