LESSON #3
INFORMED DECISION MAKING
Open-Ended Questions
Open-ended questions invite discussion. They tell the listener
that you are interested in their thoughts and feelings, and are willing
to take the time to listen. Asking this type of question is so important
when we are working with pregnant women, particularly those who are at
risk of not breastfeeding.
Getting in the habit of asking pregnant women about breastfeeding
in this way may seem difficult at first, but you will see the difference
the first time you try it, and it will become easier with practice. You
can do it!
