HI! Welcome to AN! The largest online nursing community!

We are happy to help but we need to know what you think first. Care plans are based off what the patient needs from the assessment of the patient.

There is not enough information here to help you.

Vag delivery? C section? baby full term? Any issues with labor or delivery? Did she have an episiotomy? Gravid 4 para 1 what was the issue with previous pregnancies? breast feeding? Partner involved?

Tell me about your patient.....

First, change your avatar to something more anonymous. You need to protect your identity on a very public forum, especially once you're a nurse.

Next, you need to show us what YOU have done. We're happy to help, but we won't do your homework for you. We can help guide as needed, but you need to do the legwork.

Specializes in SICU, trauma, neuro.

What does your assessment look like? I'm not familiar w/ "NCP"--does it mean nursing care plan? You can't make a nursing dx based on her medical dx. I mean not every postpartum woman gets an infection (risk for, yes), and not every woman has a lot of pain esp after a first delivery. Breast or bottlefeeding? Any issues with... Bonding? Emotions/feelings? Father involved? Extended family support? Sleep? Knowledge deficits?
