The nurse is admitting a patient with possible hydramnios. Hydramnios most likely would be suspected when:
 
  1. There is less amniotic fluid than normal for gestation.
  2. The fundal height increases disproportionately to the gestation.
  3. The woman has a twin gestation.
  4. The quadruple screen comes back positive.

Rationale 1: Hydramnios occurs when there is more amniotic fluid than normal for gestation.
Rationale 2: The increased amount of amniotic fluid increases the fundal height disproportionately to the gestation.
Rationale 3: Hydramnios is not suspected simply by virtue of a twin gestation.
Rationale 4: A positive quadruple screen is not indicative of hydramnios.
