Rationale 1: While the mother might have concerns about eventual scar formation, this is not a priority.
Rationale 2: This nursing diagnosis is appropriate for this patient.
Rationale 3: Alteration in Nutrition is not related to the problem of lacerations in the postpartal period.
Rationale 4: Self-care Deficit is not related to the problem of lacerations in the postpartal period.
