Answer to Question 1

B
Many suggestions have been made about causes of postpartum depression, most focusing on changes in hormonal levels following delivery. A variety of hormones have been implicated in the causation of postpartum depression, such as estrogen. Other hormones implicated include: progesterone, thyroxine, melatonin, cortisol, and prolactin.

Answer to Question 2

A
During every intervention with a client, the nurse uses active listening and presence. Both concepts are based on the premise of building and strengthening the nurse-client relationship. By listening and hearing the experience of clients, the nurse will be able to assess their responses to the emotions they are experiencing. By being present, the nurse offers him- or herself as a source of support for the client. Both active listening and presence are a means of portraying honest interest in the clients.
