A pregnant woman in the 36th week with swollen feet

Question 1 of 5

A pregnant woman in the 36th week of gestation reports that her feet are quite swollen at the end of the day. After careful assessment, the nurse determines that this is an expected finding at this stage of pregnancy. Which intervention is appropriate for the nurse to suggest?

A. Wear spandex-type full-length pants B. Try elevating your legs when you sit C. Limit your intake of fluids D. Eliminate salt from your diet

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Elevating legs reduces swelling by aiding venous return, a safe intervention for late-pregnancy edema. Tight pants worsen swelling, limiting fluids risks dehydration, and eliminating salt disrupts electrolytes.
