17 ANSWER
C) Urgency with urination
Explanation
Postpartum clients are at risk for urinary tract infections
related to urinary retention after delivery. The risk is increased if the
client has been catheterized during labor, delivery, or postpartum. Signs of a
urinary tract infection include urgency, burning, and frequency of urination.
The other answers are normal and do not require immediate attention. The key
focus of the question is time-related postpartal risk; the greatest risk at
this time is urinary retention and subsequent infection. Eliminate option 1
because it is too early for breastfeeding problems. Eliminate option 2 because
this could be related to dehydration at this time. Eliminate option 4 because
this describes the normal psychological adaptation that commonly occurs at days
2-3 postpartum for the majority of women.
