Mrs. D. is 36 weeks gestation and the nurse is talking with her during a prenatal visit. Which statement indicates that Mrs. D. understands the onset of labor?
a. “I need to go to the hospital as soon as the contractions become painful.”
b. “If I experience bright red vaginal bleeding I know that I am about to deliver.”
c. “I need to go to the hospital when I am having regular contractions and bloody show.”
d. “My labor will not start until after my membranes rupture and I gush fluid.”
Correct Answer C. Regular contractions coupled with bloody show suggest that cervical changes are occurring as a result of contractions.
Correct Answer C. Regular contractions coupled with bloody show suggest that cervical changes are occurring as a result of contractions.
Perception of pain with contractions is not a reliable indicator of true labor.
Bright red vaginal leading is a sign of a complication, not the onset of labor.
Rupture of membranes does not necessarily occur prior to the onset of labor.
