The client is being rushed into the labor and delivery unit.

At which station would the nurse document the fetus immediately prior to birth?

The correct answer is choice A.

Choice A rationale:

Fetal heart tones detected by ultrasound are a positive sign of pregnancy because they provide direct evidence of a fetus.

Choice B rationale:

Breast tenderness is a presumptive sign of pregnancy, not a positive one, as it can be caused by other conditions such as premenstrual syndrome.

Choice C rationale:

A positive urine pregnancy test is a probable sign of pregnancy, not a positive one, as it measures the presence of hCG, a hormone produced during pregnancy. However, certain medications and medical conditions can also produce hCG.

Choice D rationale:

Fatigue is a presumptive sign of pregnancy, not a positive one, as it can be caused by various other conditions such as stress or illness.

The correct answer is choice A. She did her perineal care independently.

Choice A rationale:

Taking the initiative for caring for her newborn independently while managing her own postpartum needs marks the taking-hold phase of infant bonding.

Choice B rationale:

Being eager to talk about her birth experience is more associated with the taking-in phase, not the taking-hold phase.

Choice C rationale:

Not asking for anything for pain all day is not a specific indicator of the taking-hold phase.

Choice D rationale:

Sitting and rocking her infant for long intervals is not a specific indicator of the taking-hold phase.
