Answer to Question 1

C
Polyhydramnios may be an indicator for a gastrointestinal defect in the baby.

Answer to Question 2

B

Feedback
A Incorrect. Giving the breast or bottle so that the baby falls asleep with warm milk will lead to caries, and is not the activity the nurse will recommend.
B Correct. Talking to infants slowly, singing lullabies, moving them gently and carefully, and rocking and cuddling are ways to help infants reduce tension.
C Incorrect. Swinging the baby in the air, holding the neck secure will not reduce tension, but will induce fear in the newborn and infant; this is definitely not the activity the nurse will recommend.
D Incorrect. Bouncing the child on the knee if done gently and carefully is not the activity the nurse will recommend, as holding the infant closely and cuddling is preferred.
