A client in the prenatal clinic believes she is pregnant because she has not menstruated for 3 months, and her breasts are getting bigger. What response by the nurse is best?
 
  1. Lack of menses and breast enlargement are presumptive signs of pregnancy.
  2. The changes you are describing are definitely indicators that you are pregnant.
  3. Lack of menses can be caused by many things. We need to do a pregnancy test.
  4. Breast and menstrual changes are positive signs of pregnancy. Congratulations.
