On the first postpartum day, the nurse is caring for a primiparous client who has recently emigrated from Japan to North America and speaks only a little English. The nurse observes that the client has been bottle-feeding her neonate on occasion, but most of the neonatal care is being performed by the client's mother-in-law. Which of the following actions would be most appropriate?

1. Notify the social worker because bonding may be affected.

2. Document the unusual maternal behavior in the client's chart.

3. Determine whether this is a cultural practice for the client and her family.

4. Obtain a prescription to make a home visit after the client's discharge.
