A client delivered her first-born son 4 hours ago. She asks the nurse what the white cheeselike substance is under the babys arms. The nurse should respond:

A. “This is a normal skin variation in newborns. It will go away in a few days.”
B. “Let me have a closer look at it. The baby may have an infection.”
C. “This material, called vernix, covered the baby before it was born. It will disappear in a few days.”
D. “Babies sometimes have sebaceous glands that get plugged at birth. This substance is an example of that condition.”
