Answer to Question 1

B
Perinatal mortality increases in the mother with type I diabetes since young childhood, so fetal activity should be monitored by the mother. Telling the mother to maintain bedrest after 34 weeks is not appropriate instruction. Capillary blood glucose levels should be performed several times a day. Restricting weight gain to 20 pounds to prevent macrosomia is not appropriate instruction. Weight gain depends on the mother's weight at conception.

Answer to Question 2

indomethacin
