The nurse can differentiate a new father is experiencing engrossment when she notices which behavior?

A. Correct. Engrossment refers to the father's intense interest in the newborn, including focused attention, touching, and bonding behaviors such as counting the baby's fingers and toes. B. Pacing during delivery may indicate anxiety but does not reflect engrossment. C. Expressing feeling overwhelmed and avoiding holding the baby suggests difficulty adjusting rather than engrossment. D. Being present during delivery is supportive but does not specifically indicate engrossment.
