Rationale:
1. Increased urination can be an indication that the newborn's condition is improving.
2. Pulmonary vascular resistance increases with hypoxia.
3. Increased PCO2 results from alveolar hypoventilation.
4. As fluid moves out of the lungs and into the bloodstream, alveoli open and kidney perfusion increases, increasing urine output.
