A client reports awaking from sleep by contractions that are occurring every five minutes and lasting 30-40 seconds. Which of the following questions should the nurse ask to assess for true labor versus false labor? Select one: a. "When did your contractions begin?" b. "Have you noticed any bloody show or fluid coming from your vagina?" c. "What happens to your contractions when you move about?" d. "Have you felt fetal movement over the last 24 hours?" correct answers b. "Have you noticed any bloody show or fluid coming from your vagina?" Vaginal discharge of blood or fluid may indicate cervical dilation, and potentially rupture of membranes. False labor is characterized by painless, irregular, and intermittent contractions that decrease in frequency, duration, and intensity with walking or position changes. Contractions are felt in the lower back or above the umbilicus and often stop with comfort measures (like oral hydration). There is usually no vaginal discharge with false labor.
