Due to the increased stress that accompanies pregnancy, abuse often begins during a woman's first pregnancy. Abuse is seldom an isolated incident. Asking the woman, What did you do to provoke him? is not a question fostering client advocacy; it implies the woman caused the abuse. Attempting to handle this situation by asking for the husband's work number is inappropriate.
