The nurse instructs the breastfeeding mother on dietary requirements and determines that further teaching is needed when the mother says:
1. "I will continue taking my prenatal vitamin for three months."
2. "I will drink at least eight glasses of milk every day."
3. "I will maintain a high-fiber diet by eating fresh fruit and vegetables."
4. "I will increase my calorie intake by 500 kcal per day."

Rationale: While the breastfeeding woman should drink at least eight glasses of fluid per day, they should not all be milk, due to the high fat content found in milk. The other statements reflect proper nutrition.
