Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Meat should be introduced last.
Rationale 2: Yellow vegetables should be offered before green vegetables.
Rationale 3: As the baby develops, foods are offered in the sequence in which they are generally best tolerated. Most experts recommend introducing cereals, fruits, yellow vegetables (squash), green vegetables (green beans), and then meats.
Rationale 4: Meat products should be introduced last.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Many babies spit up after every meal and some seem to spit up a great deal.
Rationale 2: How much the baby spits up at a time is not included in criteria to evaluate if the regurgitation should be further investigated.
Rationale 3: As long as the baby is gaining weight adequately, it is not abnormal for regurgitation or spitting up to occur.
Rationale 4: The consistency of the regurgitated material may be thin (just consumed) or curdled (has been partially digested) and either case is normal.
