A nurse is caring for a client who is postpartum and has inverted nipples. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

A. Blurred vision can indicate a prenatal complication, such as preeclampsia, which is a serious condition that can develop in the later stages of pregnancy and requires immediate attention. Preeclampsia can lead to severe health issues for both the mother and baby.
B. Shortness of breath can be a normal part of late pregnancy due to the pressure on the diaphragm from the growing uterus. While it should be monitored, it is not specifically indicative of a complication compared to other symptoms.
C. Non-pitting ankle edema is common in the later stages of pregnancy and is not necessarily a sign of a complication on its own. It can occur due to the increased fluid volume and pressure from the uterus.
D. Leukorrhea, or increased vaginal discharge, is a common and normal finding in pregnancy, especially as labor approaches. It is generally not a sign of a complication unless accompanied by other concerning symptoms.

A. Insert the suppository 5 cm (2 in) is incorrect. The suppository should be inserted about 2-3 inches into the vaginal canal, not specifically 5 cm, but the exact depth may vary.
B. Insert the suppository along the posterior vaginal wall is correct. Inserting the suppository along the posterior vaginal wall helps ensure it reaches the area where it is needed for effective treatment.
C. Apply petroleum jelly to the suppository is incorrect. The suppository should not be coated with petroleum jelly; it should be used as is to avoid interference with its absorption and effectiveness.
D. Assist the client into a prone position is incorrect. The client should be assisted into a supine position with knees bent or into a lithotomy position for the insertion of the suppository, not a prone position.
