Answer to Question 1

2. Role conflict.

Rationale:
Role conflicts arise when there are incompatibilities with expectations. The client is expected to be at work, care for the child, and make dinner. All of these expectations could lead to the client's experiencing role conflict. Role mastery occurs when a person's behaviors meet social expectations. Role ambiguity occurs when expectations are unclear and people do not know what to do or how to do it and are unable to predict the reactions of others to their actions. Self-esteem is one's own judgment of one's worth.

Answer to Question 2

1. Measure abdominal girth

Rationale:
Before each feeding, the nurse should measure the abdominal girth to determine abdominal distention, which is seen in necrotizing enterocolitis or paralytic ileus. Weighing the baby and weighing diapers are interventions to assess for fluid volume status. Measuring pulse oximetry is an intervention for assessing oxygenation.
