Mandy Davidson is a 34-year-old G2 T1 P0 A0 L1 presenting to the birthing unit at 42 weeks’ gestation for evaluation for possible induction of labor. The client’s first delivery was post term at 43 weeks’ gestation which resulted in shoulder dystocia and a second-degree perineal laceration. The client appears increasingly anxious upon assessment.
