A nurse is providing teaching about comfort measures for breast engorgement to a client who is postpartum and is breastfeeding.
Which of the following statements by the client indicates a need for further teaching?.

The correct answer is choice B.

Choice A rationale:

Abdominal pain with scant red vaginal bleeding is more indicative of placental abruption, not placenta previa.

Choice B rationale:

Painless red vaginal bleeding is a classic sign of placenta previa. This happens because the placenta is covering the cervix, which can lead to bleeding.

Choice C rationale:

Increasing abdominal pain with a nonrelaxed uterus is more indicative of a condition like uterine rupture or labor, not placenta previa.

Choice D rationale:

Intermittent abdominal pain following the passage of bloody mucus is more likely a sign of labor, not placenta previa.

The correct answer is choice B.

Choice A rationale:

Stimulating the infant to cry is important, but it is not the first action to be taken.

Choice B rationale:

Clearing the respiratory tract is the first action to be taken to ensure the newborn can breathe properly.

Choice C rationale:

Drying the infant off and covering the head is done after the respiratory tract is cleared.

Choice D rationale:

Cutting the umbilical cord is done after the infant is stabilized.
