Answer to Question 1

D
Lochia, the uterine or vaginal discharge after delivery, is initially bright red, then changes to pink or pinkish brown, and finally becomes a yellowish-white color. It has a musty odor but should not have a foul odor. Cesarean delivery will decrease the amount of lochia the client experiences.

Answer to Question 2

C
The amount of medication needed to relieve pain depends on factors such as the intensity and type of pain and the client's size and age.
