An infant with Hirschsprung's disease is to be discharged 1 or 2 days after surgery to create a colostomy. After teaching the infant's parents about the overall effects of their infant's surgery, the nurse determines that the teaching has been effective when the parents state which of the following?
1. “His abdomen will be large for awhile.”
2. “When he's ready, toilet training may be difficult.”
3. “We need to limit his intake of dairy products.”
4. “We will give him vitamin supplements until he is an adolescent.”
