D
The woman should ambulate frequently, as early as possible. The mother should avoid knee gatching and pillows, which increases pressure on the popliteal space. Sitting in a chair with legs in a dependent position causes pooling of blood in the lower extremities. Venous congestion begins as soon as the woman stands up. The stockings need to be applied before she rises from the bed in the morning.
