Funny-ish toddler nursing diagnosis?

Published

I'm doing a project and want to add in some funny nursing diagnoses pertaining to toddlers. Nothing too serious, just general toddler development related.

I have Risk for falls r/t heavy head, wobbly gait, and undeveloped sense of danger.

I need a couple more and any ideas would be awesome :)

Hmmm funny ones...well risk for impaired communication AEB incomprehensible BABBLE

Risk for self-care deficit AEB not being able to do anything themselves

Risk for interrupted breastfeeding AEB short attention span and distractibility to anything with bright colors or sounds

I am just being silly, but I think that was the point. Definitely need to be worked out more appropriately :D
