The nurse preceptor would recognize that further clarification is needed if the new graduate responded bottle feeding, use a soft sleep surface, or provide cereal in a bottle at bedtime. The AAP's recommendations included the use of a firm sleep surface (not a soft surface), breastfeeding (not bottle feeding), room-sharing without bed-sharing, routine immunizations, and consideration of using a pacifier. In addition, overheating, and exposure to tobacco smoke, alcohol, and illicit drugs are to be avoided (American Academy of Pediatrics, 2011). Also, there was no recommendation regarding providing cereal in a bottle at bedtime.
