A nurse on a labor and delivery unit is providing teaching to a client who plans to use hypnosis to control labor pain. Which of the following information should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct information that the nurse should include is that "Hypnosis can be beneficial if you practiced it during the prenatal period."
