The mom and baby were discharged within 3 hours of me starting my shift. The infant wasn't having any respiratory distress and the moms fundas was firm and midline when she was in my care. Other then just having a baby she is very healthy so I thought either pain or it would have to be all risk diagnoses.

Hey there! I am working on my NPR for my first week of mom and baby. I need to come up with 2 priority nursing diagnoses. This is my problem: I am going between two for both the mom and the baby. For the mom I am going between Acute Pain related to tissue trauma as evidenced by facial grimace and patient stating pain almost a 4/10 and Risk for infection. The mom is in pain because of a c-section but is that more important then a risk for infection? The baby was circumcised so I am choosing between risk for infection or risk for inadequate thermoregulation. What do you think?
Thanks
