The lactation consult: problem solving, teaching, and support for the breastfeeding family.

Requests from parents for lactation support have increased significantly in primary care settings. Pediatric nurse practitioners with the ability to assess the newborn as well as the breastfeeding couple are a valuable asset. This article seeks to identify early predictors of breastfeeding problems and how to perform a lactation consultation to address these concerns. Good infant weight gain and maternal comfort while nursing are described as key evaluation criteria when assessing the nursing couple. The importance of achieving a good latch at the breast is stressed. A step-by-step guide to both the lactation consultation and common latch-on techniques are reviewed.

Development of social problem solving in early childhood: stability, change, and associations with social competence.

Kindergarten and 1st-grade boys were administered social cognitive interviews in 2 consecutive years to investigate the response-generation step of N. R. Crick and K. A. Dodge's (1994) social information processing model. Boys generated responses to 4 types of hypothetical social dilemmas. Responses to these situations were primarily prosocial, with a large minority of avoidant and antisocial solutions. In general, older boys provided more effective solutions than did their younger peers, and stabilities were modest but significant for subcategories of both prosocial and antisocial responses. Boys who were accepted by their peers provided more prosocial and effective solutions than did boys of lower peer status, but no status differences emerged for antisocial responses. The data also suggest that young children view aggression as an acceptable means to solving peer conflict.
