Answer to Question 1

A
The general pattern for the stages of grieving are denial, anger, bargaining, acceptance, and resolution.

Answer to Question 2

C
Request that the client ambulate to the bathroom to empty her bladder is an appropriate nursing action for a distended bladder, the most frequent cause of the fundus becoming displaced following a vaginal delivery. Inserting a catheter to drain the bladder is appropriate only if the mother is unable to urinate.
