Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse midwife should see the client at 18 weeks' gestation complaining of blurring of vision. Blurring of vision indicates that the client is most likely experiencing pregnancy-induced hypertension. Increased urinary frequency is a normal complaint of women in the first trimester. Intermittent, painless contractions around the 20th week of gestation are referred to as Braxton Hicks contractions. The client who is coming for her first prenatal check up does not demonstrate any signs of abnormality.
