0800:
A 28-year-old nulliparous female comes to the clinic for confirmation of suspected pregnancy due to amenorrhea and a positive home pregnancy test. The client's current exercise regimen includes indoor cycling and outdoor running. The client reports nausea, vomiting, and breast tenderness. She has a 28-day menstrual cycle, and her last menstrual period was March 10- 17. The health care provider notes a bluish-purple vaginal mucosa and cervix during pelvic examination and confirms a 12-week intrauterine pregnancy by sonography. A fetal heart rate of 155/min is detected with handheld Doppler.

For each client finding, click to specify if the finding is consistent with presumptive, probable, or positive signs of pregnancy. Note: Each row must have one response option selected

Correct Answer: A: Presumptive, B: Probable, C: Positive, D: Presumptive, E: Presumptive, F: Probable, G: Positive

Rationale: Presumptive signs are subjective and may have other causes (e.g., amenorrhea, nausea/vomiting, breast tenderness). Probable signs are objective but not definitive (e.g., Chadwick sign, positive home pregnancy test). Positive signs confirm pregnancy (e.g., fetal heart rate, fetus visible on ultrasound).
