Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
This response indicates understanding that postpartum blues is transient and that time and rest are major healers. The other responses are all inappropriate, as they are judgmental.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Antidepressants have no use in postpartum blues. Rest, support, and compassion are the main interventions.
