On the fourth postpartum day, a client experiences breast engorgement. To relieve her discomfort, which of these nursing interventions is most effective to meet the expected outcome?

A. Remove the client's bra: Incorrect. A well-fitted supportive bra helps reduce discomfort and swelling. Removing the bra may increase pain and worsen engorgement. B. Alternate with warm compresses and ice packs to the breasts: Correct. Warm compresses before breastfeeding help with milk flow, and cold compresses after feeding reduce swelling and discomfort. C. Administer acetaminophen as prescribed: Incorrect. While pain relief can help, it does not directly address the engorgement. D. Limit breastfeeding to twice a day: Incorrect. Frequent breastfeeding or pumping is encouraged to relieve engorgement.
