Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG, 2013) recommends a total pregnancy weight gain of 11.5 kg to 16 kg for a woman of normal weight. While weight gain is slower during the first trimester, it is recommended to average one pound per week during the second and third trimesters. The recommended weight gain for pregnancy is adjusted according to the patient's body mass index.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FHTs are best auscultated through the fetal back in vertex and breech presentations and toward the mother's flank when the fetus is in a transverse lie. In vertex presentations, FHTs are usually best heard below the mother's umbilicus, in the lower abdomen, whereas for breech presentations, they are best heard at or slightly above the umbilicus, in the mother's upper abdomen.

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.
