A nurse is conducting a breastfeeding assessment for a primipara mother. The infant has not yet learned how to latch on strongly, and the mother begins to get frustrated. In addition, the infant seems unsettled and uninterested in eating.
 
  The mother comments that she thinks her frustration is causing her milk to spoil. How should the nurse handle this statement?
  1. Agree with the mother's statement and teach her relaxation techniques to reduce her frustration.
  2. Assure the mother that there is no evidence that milk composition changes based on the mother's emotional state. The infant is fussy because he can sense the mother's frustration.
  3. Tell the mother that the delayed let-down resulting from her frustration is causing the infant to suck in air rather than milk.
  4. Remind the mother that spoiled milk will cause cramping in the infant's stomach, contributing to his fussy demeanor.
