A client is in her 16th week of pregnancy. A routine urinalysis has revealed bacteriuria, and the mi

A client is in her 16th week of pregnancy. A routine urinalysis has revealed bacteriuria, and the midwife has given the client a prescription for an antibacterial. The client asks why she must take this medication when she has no symptoms of an infection. What is the nurse’s best response?
1. “Even though you don’t have any symptoms, the infection could keep your baby from gaining enough weight before birth.”
2. “I know you don’t want to take this medication, but it is safe and will not harm you or your baby.”
3. “You are denying your symptoms because you don’t want to take the medication.”
4. “Taking this medication will prevent your baby from developing kidney damage in the future.”
