Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, E
Signs of approaching labor can include lightening, bloody show, energy spurt (nesting behavior), increased Braxton-Hicks contractions (false labor), and spontaneous rupture of membranes. (Cervical changes also occur, but a woman may not be aware of them.) Any of these signs may indicate that labor is likely to occur soon. With the exception of a rupture of membranes, it may not be necessary for the woman to consult her health care provider when these events happen.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, C, D, E
The four Ps, pelvis, passenger, powers, and psyche, are essential components of the labor and birth process, requiring both maternal and fetal adaptations.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
