1. The client may be experiencing postpartum depression.

Rationale:
Lack of appetite and the desire to sleep are symptoms of developing postpartum depression. The client could be developing postpartum depression and not just the blues.. The client would need to have more acute symptoms such as hearing voices to consider postpartum psychosis. The nurse has no way of knowing what the client's sleep-wake cycle is, so this choice is incorrect.
