(A) "You should recognize that your baby sucking on his hands is a hunger cue."
Recognizing hunger cues is crucial for successful breastfeeding. Early hunger cues like sucking on hands, rooting, and lip-smacking indicate that the baby is ready to feed. Responding to these cues can help establish a good breastfeeding routine and ensure the baby gets adequate nutrition before becoming too distressed to feed effectively.

(B) "You should feed your baby for 10 minutes on each breast."
Feeding duration can vary significantly among babies. Some may need longer than 10 minutes on each breast, while others might feed more efficiently in a shorter time. Instead of a strict time limit, it's important to encourage the mother to allow the baby to feed until they show signs of being full, such as pulling away from the breast or falling asleep.

(C) "You should feed your baby six times a day."
Newborns typically need to feed more frequently than six times a day. Most newborns breastfeed 8-12 times in 24 hours. Limiting feeds to six times a day may not provide sufficient nutrition and can affect the baby’s growth and milk supply.

(D) "You should wake your baby at least every 6 hours at night for feedings."
Newborns, especially in the first few weeks, often need to be fed more frequently than every 6 hours, including at night. Typically, it’s recommended to wake a baby to feed if they sleep for more than 4 hours at a time in the early weeks to ensure adequate intake and to help establish the mother’s milk supply.

(A) A client who smokes one pack of cigarettes per day:
While smoking is a significant risk factor for many health issues, including cardiovascular disease, it is not a direct contraindication for the use of an intrauterine device (IUD). However, smokers should be counseled about the risks of smoking and offered support to quit.

(B) A client who has a history of gallbladder disease:
A history of gallbladder disease does not contraindicate the use of an IUD. IUDs are primarily contraindicated in cases of active pelvic infection, certain uterine abnormalities, and confirmed pregnancy, but not gallbladder disease.

(C) A client who has a positive pregnancy test:
An IUD should not be inserted in a client who has a positive pregnancy test. Inserting an IUD during pregnancy can lead to complications such as infection, miscarriage, and preterm birth. It is crucial to confirm the absence of pregnancy before IUD insertion.

(D) A client who is nulliparous:
Being nulliparous (having never given birth) is not a contraindication for IUD use. IUDs can be safely used by nulliparous women, though some might have a slightly higher risk of expulsion or insertion-related discomfort compared to women who have given birth.

(A) "You should check the identity of individuals who come to remove your baby from the room":
It's crucial for parents to verify the identity of anyone who comes to take their baby out of the room. This helps ensure the baby's safety and prevents unauthorized individuals from taking the baby. Hospital staff usually wear identification badges, and parents should be encouraged to ask for and verify this identification.

(B) "We will scan your baby's identification bracelet each time check on him":
While scanning the baby's identification bracelet might be part of some hospital protocols for specific purposes like medication administration or matching mother and baby during certain procedures, it is not typically done every time a nurse checks on the baby. Continuous scanning is not a standard practice and would be logistically impractical.

(C) "We will match the bracelet on your baby with his footprint record each shift":
Matching the baby's bracelet with footprint records each shift is not a standard safety protocol. Footprints are usually taken at birth for records but are not routinely matched every shift. Identification is more reliably ensured through the use of identification bands worn by both the mother and the baby.

(D) "Your baby will wear an electronic bracelet when he is out of your room":
In many hospitals, electronic bracelets are used as a security measure, but they are typically worn by the baby at all times, not just when the baby is out of the room. This measure helps prevent abduction and ensures the baby's location is monitored continuously.

(A) Prepare the client for an abdominal sonogram:
An abdominal sonogram is not relevant for diagnosing or treating mastitis, which is an infection of the breast tissue. Mastitis typically requires assessment of the breast and possibly a breast ultrasound if an abscess is suspected, but not an abdominal sonogram.

(B) Encourage the client to continue to breastfeed:
Continuing to breastfeed is recommended for clients with mastitis. Breastfeeding helps to drain the breast and can speed up recovery. It also helps to prevent complications such as breast abscess and supports continued milk production.

(C) Encourage the client to wear a bra that is loose fitting:
While wearing a comfortable bra is important, a loose-fitting bra may not provide the necessary support for engorged or painful breasts. A well-fitting, supportive bra is usually recommended to provide comfort without being too tight, which can exacerbate symptoms.

(D) Limit the client's daily fluid intake:
Limiting fluid intake is not recommended and is not beneficial for treating mastitis. Adequate hydration is important for overall health and helps maintain milk supply. Encouraging the client to drink plenty of fluids is essential for recovery and continued breastfeeding.

(A) Urination urgency and frequency:
Increased urgency and frequency of urination are common discomforts during the first trimester of pregnancy. This occurs due to hormonal changes and the growing uterus pressing on the bladder, which reduces its capacity.

(B) Tingling in the fingers:
Tingling in the fingers, also known as carpal tunnel syndrome, is more commonly associated with the later stages of pregnancy when fluid retention is more pronounced. It is not typically a common discomfort during the first trimester.

(C) Round ligament pain:
Round ligament pain is more common in the second trimester when the uterus is growing rapidly and the ligaments supporting it stretch. This type of pain usually manifests as sharp, shooting pain in the lower abdomen or groin.

(D) Perineal discomfort and pressure:
Perineal discomfort and pressure are more common in the later stages of pregnancy, particularly in the third trimester, as the baby descends into the pelvis and prepares for birth. It is not typically a discomfort experienced during the first trimester.

(A) Perform unbiased teaching:
The nurse should provide comprehensive and unbiased information about the various methods of contraception available. This involves explaining the pros and cons of each method, effectiveness, potential side effects, and how each method aligns with the client's lifestyle and health needs, allowing the client to make an informed decision.

(B) Assess the client's socioeconomic status:
While understanding the client's socioeconomic status can provide context for their healthcare needs and potential barriers to accessing certain types of contraception, it is not the primary action when inquiring about contraception methods. The focus should be on providing unbiased information first.

(C) Collect a dietary history:
Collecting a dietary history is not directly relevant to discussing contraception methods. While nutritional status is important for overall health, it does not significantly impact the choice of contraception.

(D) Select the best method of contraception for the client:
The nurse should not select the contraception method for the client. Instead, the nurse's role is to provide the necessary information and support for the client to make their own informed choice. Autonomy and personal preference are key factors in selecting a contraception method.

(A) Tell the client to apply hydrocortisone ointment to the affected area of the breast:
Hydrocortisone ointment is not appropriate for treating mastitis, which is an infection of the breast tissue. The primary treatments for mastitis include antibiotics, pain management, and supportive measures like warm compresses to relieve discomfort and promote milk flow.

(B) Suggest the client apply warm compresses to the affected breast:
Applying warm compresses to the affected breast can help relieve pain and promote milk flow, which can aid in resolving the infection. Warmth can help reduce inflammation and make breastfeeding or pumping less painful.

(C) Recommend the client avoid wearing a nursing bra until symptoms resolve:
Avoiding a nursing bra is not necessary. In fact, wearing a well-fitting and supportive nursing bra can help manage discomfort and support the breasts. It is important that the bra is not too tight to avoid further compression and blockage of milk ducts.

(D) Encourage the client to limit oral fluid intake to decrease milk production:
Limiting fluid intake is not recommended. Adequate hydration is important for overall health and maintaining milk supply. Reducing fluid intake does not effectively manage mastitis and can lead to dehydration.

(A) Increased fundal height:
Hyperemesis gravidarum, severe nausea, and vomiting during pregnancy, typically does not cause an increased fundal height. Fundal height may be normal or even decreased due to dehydration and weight loss.

(B) Poor skin turgor:
Poor skin turgor is a common finding in clients with hyperemesis gravidarum due to dehydration. Excessive vomiting leads to fluid loss and dehydration, resulting in poor skin elasticity and turgor.

(C) Decreased pulse rate:
Hyperemesis gravidarum usually results in dehydration and hypovolemia, which can lead to an increased heart rate rather than a decreased pulse rate. The body compensates for decreased fluid volume by increasing the heart rate to maintain adequate circulation.

(D) Proteinuria:
Proteinuria, the presence of abnormal amounts of protein in the urine, is not typically associated with hyperemesis gravidarum. Proteinuria can be a sign of kidney dysfunction or other medical conditions but is not directly related to severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.

(A) Lie in a left side lying position for 30 min after meals:
While lying on the left side can sometimes help alleviate heartburn, it's generally recommended to elevate the head and upper body during sleep, especially if heartburn worsens at night. Lying down immediately after meals can actually exacerbate heartburn symptoms.

(B) Drink a cup of black coffee before breakfast:
Drinking black coffee can exacerbate heartburn symptoms due to its acidic nature and caffeine content. It is not recommended for individuals experiencing frequent heartburn, especially during pregnancy.

(C) Take sips of milk between meals:
Taking sips of milk between meals can help neutralize stomach acid and provide temporary relief from heartburn symptoms. However, it's essential to avoid drinking large quantities of milk at once, as this can lead to increased stomach acid production.

(D) Eat three large meals per day:
Eating large meals can increase pressure on the stomach and exacerbate heartburn symptoms. Instead of consuming three large meals, it's better to eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to help prevent heartburn.

(A) "You will be prescribed methadone":
Methadone maintenance therapy is a commonly used treatment for opioid use disorder in pregnant women. Methadone helps to manage withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, and stabilize the individual, promoting healthier outcomes for both the mother and the baby.

(B) "You will be prescribed aripiprazole":
Aripiprazole is not typically prescribed for opioid use disorder. It is an antipsychotic medication used to treat conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression, but it is not indicated for opioid dependence or withdrawal.

(C) "You will be prescribed naloxone":
Naloxone is an opioid antagonist used to reverse opioid overdose. While it is crucial to have naloxone readily available for individuals with opioid use disorder to prevent overdose deaths, it is not a primary treatment for opioid use disorder during pregnancy.

(D) "You will be prescribed diazepam":
Diazepam is a benzodiazepine medication primarily used for anxiety, muscle spasms, and seizures. It is not indicated for the treatment of opioid use disorder during pregnancy. In fact, benzodiazepines like diazepam should be used with caution during pregnancy due to the risk of birth defects and neonatal withdrawal symptoms.
