The postpartum patient who continually repeats the story of her labor, birth, and recovery experiences is performing which of the following tasks?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Reliving the birth experience makes the event real and helps the mother realize that the pregnancy is over and that the infant is born and is now a separate individual. She is in the taking-in phase, trying to make the birth experience seem real. This is to satisfy her needs, not the needs of others.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because an abnormal odor of the lochia indicates a uterine infection in a postpartum patient. This is an early and specific sign of infection compared to assessing other areas such as the episiotomy site, abdomen, or vital signs. Monitoring the odor of the lochia can help in early detection and appropriate management of uterine infections in postpartum patients.
