A nurse is caring for a client who delivered a newborn by cesarean birth 1 day ago. The client requests nonpharmacological interventions to manage pain when changing positions. Which of the following responses should the nurse make?

A. Using patterned-paced breathing is typically associated with labor pain management rather than postoperative pain following a cesarean birth. While controlled breathing can help with discomfort, it is not the most effective strategy for incision-related pain. B. Changing positions as little as possible is incorrect. Early mobility is encouraged after a cesarean birth to promote circulation, prevent complications like deep vein thrombosis, and aid recovery. Avoiding movement can lead to stiffness and prolonged discomfort. C. Splinting the incision with a pillow is correct. Holding a pillow firmly against the incision while changing positions provides support, reduces strain on the abdominal muscles, and minimizes pain during movement. D. Applying counterpressure to the back is incorrect. Counterpressure is a technique used for back labor pain during childbirth and is not relevant for post-cesarean incision pain.
