Answer to Question 1

C
Urinary retention usually displaces the uterus to the right, which interferes with the ability of the uterus to contract for effective involution. The primary rationale for assessing for bladder retention is not because of pain, possible blood pressure elevation, risk of infection, or prevention of accurate evaluation of intake and output.

Answer to Question 2

B
The correct sequence of Rubin's stages of attachment between mother and child are taking in, taking hold, then letting go.
