The nurse is leading a session on nutrition for postpartum clients. Which statement indicates that teaching has been effective?
1. "Breastfeeding requires that I eat lots of protein daily."

Explanation:
1. Breastfeeding clients should consume 65 g of protein daily during the first 6 months of breastfeeding and 62 g daily during the second 6 months. Protein is a major ingredient in breast milk.
2. Breastfeeding requires an increase of 1000 mg per day of calcium—the same amount of calcium that is recommended during pregnancy.
3. Although vitamin intake is not directly related to bottlefeeding, good nutritional habits are important to form while bottlefeeding, because in the future, the baby will be eating what the mother eats.
4. Sodium intake is not increased during bottlefeeding.
