B

Answer to Question 2

1
1. Correct. A newborn who has not voided in 24 hours may have any of a number of prob-lems, some of which deserve the attention of the physician.
2. Incorrect. Formula-fed infants tend to void more frequently in the first 3 days because breast milk has not come in yet.
3. Incorrect. Brick dust may be uric acid crystals; blood spotting could be due to withdrawal of maternal hormones (pseudomenstruation) or a circumcision. The physician must be notified only if there is no apparent cause of bleeding.
4. Incorrect. Weight loss from fluid loss might take 14 days to regain.
