A nurse is collecting data from a client who is at 30 weeks of gestation. Which of the following findings should the nurse identify as a manifestation of pyelonephritis?

A) Epigastric discomfort is more indicative of gastrointestinal issues;
C) A temperature of 37.7°C (99.8°F) is within normal range and not specific to pyelonephritis;
D) Abdominal cramping is more likely related to gastrointestinal or uterine issues in pregnancy.
