Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Avoiding fatty foods is a nonpharmacologic measure to reduce nausea and vomiting. Patients should drink fluids between and not with meals. Taking iron in the morning is not recommended. The pregnant woman should eat small, frequent meals.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Folic acid can help prevent neural tube defects. All women of childbearing age should take folic acid supplements. The other supplements may be given during pregnancy but are not recommended prior to getting pregnant.
