Vacillate between the desire to have her own nurturing needs met and the need to take charge of her own care and that of her newborn.

One week after birth the woman should exhibit behaviors characteristic of the dependent-independent or taking-hold stage. She still has needs for nurturing and acceptance by others.Options A and B: Wanting to discuss the events of her labor and delivery are characteristics of the taking-in stage. as are a limited readiness to learn and reduced attention span; this stage lasts from the first 24 hours until 2 days after delivery.Option D: Having reestablished her role as a spouse reflects the letting-go stage. which indicates that psychosocial recovery is complete.
