legumes, nuts, dried fruits, and some dark green leafy vegetables.

Answer to Question 2
1
Rationale:
1. The purpose of the nonstress test is to determine the results of movement on fetal heart rate. The client will have to lie still on her side during the procedure.
2. There is no IV needed to administer medications.
3. Caffeine might cause the infant to be more active and cause the test to go quicker.
4. Clients usually are asked to have their bladders full only for ultrasounds.
