Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage include a precipitous labor less than 3 hours, uterine atony, placenta previa or abruption, labor induction or augmentation, operative procedures such as vacuum extraction, forceps, or cesarean birth, retained placental fragments, prolonged third stage of labor greater than 30 minutes, multiparity, and uterine overdistention such as from a large infant, twins, or hydramnios.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The new mother is asking the nurse for help with breastfeeding, which supports the nursing diagnosis of health-seeking behaviors. The patient requesting help with breastfeeding does not indicate powerlessness, readiness for enhanced coping, or anxiety related to breastfeeding.
