Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale:
1. The client who was overdue is not at as great a risk for postpartum hemorrhage.
2. The client who delivered by cesarean is not at as great a risk for postpartum hemorrhage.
3. Uterine atony is a cause of postpartal hemorrhage. A contributing factor that can cause uterine atony is oxytocin augmentation of labor.
4. The client who delivered vaginally at 36 weeks is not at as great a risk for postpartum hemorrhage.

Answer to Question 2

Another expected outcome would be remaining free of, or displaying less frequent signs of, episodic pain.
