Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The fundus rises to the umbilicus after birth and remains there for about 24 hours. A fundus that is above the umbilicus may indicate uterine atony or urinary retention. The fundus palpable at the umbilicus is an appropriate assessment finding for 12 hours postpartum. The fundus palpable one fingerbreadth below the umbilicus is an appropriate assessment finding for 12 hours postpartum. The fundus palpable two fingerbreadths below the umbilicus is an unusual finding for 12 hours postpartum; however, it is still appropriate.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Activity can aid the movement of accumulated gas in the gastrointestinal tract. Rectal suppositories can be helpful after distention occurs; however, do not prevent it. Carbonated beverages may increase distention. Ambulation is the best prevention. Abdominal strengthening will not prevent distention.
