The nurse is providing care for a pregnant 16-year-old client. The client says that she’s concerned she may gain too much weight and wants to start dieting. The nurse should respond by saying.
A. "Now isn’t a good time to begin dieting because you are eating for two. "
B. "Let’s explore your feelings further. "
C. " Nutrition is important because depriving your baby of nutrients can cause developmental and growth problems. "
D. "The prenatal vitamins should ensure the baby gets all the necessary nutrients. "
参考答案：C
解析：Depriving the developing fetus of nutrients can cause serious problems, and the nurse should discuss this with the client. The client isn’t eating for two; this is a misconception. Exploring feelings helps the client understand her concerns, but she needs to be aware of the risks at this time. The vitamins are supplements and don’t contain everything a mother or neonate needs; they work in congruence with a balanced diet.
