Which of the following actions by the nurse would be most appropriate?
1. Explore his or her own feelings about the issues of anencephaly and organ donation.
2. Contact the client's minister to discuss the client's options related to the pregnancy.
3. Advise the client that the prolonged neonatal death will be very painful for her.
4. Ask the client if she has discussed this with her family.
