A woman is being seen to confirm a possible pregnancy. When the nurse asks the woman how she has been feeling, which statement reflects the expected signs of pregnancy? Select all that apply.
Correct answer
A,C,D
Rationale
Because the nurse is asking the woman, she would expect presumptive signs of pregnancy to be vocalized. Specifically the presumptive signs of pregnancy are nausea, vomiting, breast changes, amenorrhea, urinary frequency, fatigue, and quickening. Diarrhea is not a typical sign of early pregnancy, and increased energy is less common as fatigue is more typical.
