Which of the following women is the best candidate for vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC)?

In some cases, an endocrinologist may also be involved in the management of gestational diabetes. The nurse can anticipate that the client will be diagnosed with gestational diabetes and will be referred to a dietician for dietary modifications and glucose monitoring during the remainder of her pregnancy. Regular prenatal care will also continue, and the healthcare provider may adjust the treatment plan based on the client's individual needs.

However, a diagnosis of Type II diabetes would not be made solely based on a failed GTT during pregnancy, as gestational diabetes is a temporary condition that usually resolves after delivery.

After a forceps-assisted birth, the infant should be assessed for signs of trauma or injury, such as bruising, facial nerve injury, or skull fractures. This assessment should be done immediately after the birth to ensure prompt recognition and management of any issues.

Option A is incorrect because measuring the circumference of the infant's head can be done after the assessment for trauma has been completed and any issues have been addressed.
Option B is incorrect because applying a cold pack to the infant's scalp is not a standard nursing intervention after a forceps-assisted birth.
Option D is incorrect because prophylactic antibiotics are not routinely administered to infants after a forceps-assisted birth unless there is a specific indication, such as suspected infection.
