A nurse is educating the parents of a newborn about the Plastibell circumcision technique. Which piece of information should the nurse include in the teaching?

Choice A rationale
Informing the client that the law requires them to name the fetus is not accurate. Laws vary by location, but most do not require parents to name a stillborn fetus. It is important to provide accurate information and support the parents in their decisions during this difficult time.
Choice B rationale
Limiting the amount of time the fetus is in the client’s room is not necessarily beneficial. Each family will have different needs and preferences when it comes to spending time with their stillborn baby. Some families may find comfort in holding and spending time with their baby, while others may prefer not to. The nurse should support the family’s decisions and provide compassionate care.
Choice C rationale
Instructing the client that an autopsy should be performed within 24 hours is not necessarily beneficial. The decision to perform an autopsy will depend on a variety of factors, including the parents’ wishes, the circumstances of the stillbirth, and local laws and regulations. It is important to provide the parents with information and support them in making this decision.
Choice D rationale
Providing the client with photos of the fetus can be a helpful part of the grieving process for some families. It allows them to remember their baby and can be a tangible reminder of the baby’s existence. However, this should be done based on the family’s wishes.

Choice A rationale
Contractions feeling further apart is not a direct indicator of the effectiveness of the hands-and-knees position in relieving discomfort associated with a fetus in the occipitoposterior position.
Choice B rationale
Feeling relief from pelvic pressure may not directly indicate the effectiveness of the hands-and-knees position in relieving discomfort associated with a fetus in the occipitoposterior position.
Choice C rationale
Improvement in back labor is a direct indicator of the effectiveness of the hands-and-knees position in relieving discomfort associated with a fetus in the occipitoposterior position.
Choice D rationale
Lessening of suprapubic pain may not directly indicate the effectiveness of the hands-and-knees position in relieving discomfort associated with a fetus in the occipitoposterior position.
