CarePlan Multi Client OB

Help please,

I am a male nurse struggling to survive OB. I have a 31 year old client, highly educated, who just had her first baby C-Section. The baby's 5 minute APGAR was 9 and is now in good shape. My issue is that the mother is completely dominated by her mother. The newborn's grandmother is refusing to let the father have anything to do with the baby, but the mother has been texting him information from her room. I was told that interupted family process is a good diagnosis, but I feel ineffective parenting might be better. The client also has a Hx of depression and I feel that should could leave her "well to do" family at any time to be with the baby's father. I have chosen risk for SIDS for the newborn r/t knowledge deficit of caring for a newborn. However, I am really stuck on mom. Nothing from NANDA seems to fit her situation and I am uncomfortable making things up. Any suggestions? Thanks

Oops......Male STUDENT NURSE...sorry:)

risk for ineffective parenting related to grandmother domination

kidding :)

Instead of risk for SIDS, why not put knowledge deficit r/t newborn care aeb 1st time parenting. Also ineffective family process r/t ineffective communication between mother, grandmother and father. Also risk for infection r/t wound aeb C-section. Even as a male, you should be able to work through the dx!
