Answer to Question 1

B
Cephalohematomas are characterized by bleeding between a bone and its covering, the periosteum. Because of the breakdown of the red blood cells within a hematoma, the infants are at greater risk for jaundice. Caput is an edematous area on the head caused by pressure against the cervix. Erythema toxicum is a benign rash of unknown cause that consists of blotchy red areas.

Answer to Question 2

A
Lying supine increases the discomfort of back labor.
A sitting or kneeling position may help the fetal head to rotate to occiput anterior.
Rocking the pelvis encourages rotation from occiput posterior to occiput anterior.
Squatting aids both rotation and fetal descent.
