Delayed cord clamping provides many benefits to the neonate and is considered a standard of care. The benefits include improvement in transitional circulation and..

Choice A reason: This is the correct action because a full bladder can cause the uterus to be displaced and prevent it from contracting properly, leading to uterine atony and excessive bleedinG. Asking the client to empty her bladder can help the fundus to return to the midline and reduce the lochiA.

Choice B reason: This is not the correct action because the client's temperature is within the normal range for the first 24 hours postpartum. A slight elevation in temperature can be due to dehydration, exertion, or milk production. The nurse should monitor the client's temperature and encourage fluid intake, but it is not a priority action.

Choice C reason: This is not the correct action because increasing IV fluids can cause fluid overload and worsen the bleedinG. The nurse should assess the client's fluid status and adjust the IV rate accordingly, but it is not a priority action.

Choice D reason: This is not the correct action because encouraging the client to nurse more frequently can stimulate oxytocin release and cause more uterine contractions and bleedinG. The nurse should support the client's breastfeeding practices, but it is not a priority action.

A. "You are far enough along that your baby will be just finE." This is not a good response because it is dismissive of the client's concerns and does not provide any factual information or reassurancE. The nurse should not make false promises or minimize the client's feelings.

B. "Everyone worries about their baby while they are in labor." This is not a good response because it is generalizing and does not address the client's specific situation. The nurse should not compare the client to others or imply that their worries are normal or insignificant.

D. "We have a neonatal unit here equipped to handle emergencies." This is not a good response because it implies that there is a high risk of complications and may increase the client's anxiety. The nurse should not focus on negative outcomes or scare the client with unnecessary information.
