Which comment from a postpartum client indicates the need for further investigation?

The comment about having a relative visit daily to care for the baby and expressing that the baby's cries bother the client points to a potential issue that warrants further investigation. This statement may indicate a level of stress or difficulty coping with the demands of new motherhood, particularly in the context of the baby's needs and the emotional challenges that can arise postpartum.

Postpartum clients can experience various responses to the transition of having a newborn, and feelings of being overwhelmed or struggling to cope are common. An indication that a client's ability to bond with or care for the baby is being negatively affected, especially to the extent that the cries of the baby are bothersome to them, could signal issues such as postpartum depression or anxiety. These conditions can hinder a mother's ability to nurture her infant and affect her overall well-being.

In contrast, the other comments reflect more typical postpartum experiences and concerns. Feeling exhausted and taking naps when the baby sleeps is a common strategy for managing fatigue. Worrying about not hearing the baby at night can reflect normal parental anxieties about newborn care and safety. Lastly, increased emotionality after childbirth can be a typical adjustment reaction since hormonal changes and the challenges of new parenting often lead to emotional fluctuations. Thus, these comments do not signify an immediate need for concern
