  2. can go back to prepregnancy consumption patterns of any drinks as long as she gets enough calcium.
  3. should avoid trying to lose large amounts of weight.
  4. must avoid exercising because it is too fatiguing.

Question 2

In practical terms regarding genetic health care, nurses should be aware that:
 
  1. genetic disorders affect equally people of all socioeconomic backgrounds, races, and ethnic groups.

  3. the most important of all nursing functions is providing emotional support to the family during counseling.
  4. taking genetic histories is the province of large universities and medical centers.
