A pregnant client tells you during a clinic visit that she is concerned about her significant other's change in behavior during the course of the pregnancy. She relates feelings of being afraid but emphatically denies any physical or verbal threats. She confides in you that she has been using her mobile phone to find out more information about this subject. What is the most appropriate nursing response?
A) Tell her that all relationships change during pregnancy and give herself and her significant other some time to adapt to this situation by spending quality time with one another.
B) Tell the client that you are concerned for her and the baby; provide her with a phone number for a safe house just in case she needs to act quickly and leave the home situation.
C) Explore in more detail the client's feelings but tell her that you are concerned about searching information on the Internet as a stimulus trigger for potential abuse.
D) Do not let the client leave the clinic office and call the domestic abuse hotline number to report the incident.
