2, 3, 4. Incorrect. This may be an honest reason for not breastfeeding, although further education concerning breastfeeding's ease, convenience, benefits, and adaptability (expressing milk into bottles) might change some minds. In any case, the nurse must provide information in a non-judgmental manner and respect the mother's decision. Nonetheless, breastfeeding is definitely contraindicated when the mother has medical or drug issues of her own.
