Question

After the birth of her baby a client tells the nurse, "i'm so cold, and i can't stop shaking." how should the nurse respond

Answer 1

The nurse should tell the patient that she will help her to get warm blankets in order for the chill to go away. Feeling of chills after giving birth is a common experience and it happens as a result of vasomotor reactions that occur during birth. Covering the patient with blanket will remove this discomfort.
