McFadden Family IF Maternal and Child Health Risks
Activity
Tutorial
Claire brings infant Marie to her family physician for the 2-month well baby visit, alone. When asked how she and Dave are adjusting, she mumbles “fine.” Marie has been “fussy” during the night, and Claire is finding breast-feeding to be a challenge. Newborn examination is performed, the Rourke baby record is completed and no concerns noted. Claire is motivated to breastfeed but she says Dave thinks formula is better and is worried the baby is not getting enough milk and that is why she is crying. “He says it is my fault.” The benefits of nursing to mom and baby are reviewed, along with formula options, and a referral to a lactation consultant is made. Two weeks later, the office receives an “urgent” call from Claire’s aunt asking that she be seen. Notably, Claire did not bring in baby Marie for a follow-up, in spite of a reminder call from the office. Claire is booked as the last appointment of the afternoon, and reception staff comment they heard screaming in the background while Claire’s aunt made the call. One receptionist says “things are not right” in the McFadden family.
