Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale:
1. The postpartum client can resume light housekeeping after the second week at home.
2. Within the first week is too early to resume even light housekeeping activity.
3. It's not necessary to wait until after the six-week postpartum checkup to resume light housekeeping.
4. The second day is too early to resume even light housekeeping activity.

Answer to Question 2

A
The second stage of labor begins when the cervix is completely dilated and effaced. Contractions every 3 minutes lasting 60 seconds describes the contractions of the active phase of the first stage of labor. The fetal head is engaged earlier, in the first stage of labor. Rupture of the membranes may occur at the onset of labor, or an artificial amniotomy may be performed during the first stage of labor. It is not a defining point of the second stage.
