The nurse is observing a client who gave birth yesterday. Where should the nurse expect to find the top of the client’s fundus?

Answer 1

The nurse should expect to find the top of the client's fundus at or just below the level of the client's umbilicus (belly button). This is because immediately after childbirth, the fundus is typically located at the level of the umbilicus and then gradually descends back into the pelvis over the next few days.
