Answer to Question 1

2,5
Rationale 1: Women can have contractions without being in true labor.
Rationale 2: Once the cervix starts to dilate, the patient is in true labor.
Rationale 3: Membranes can rupture before true labor begins.
Rationale 4: Engagement can take place before true labor begins.
Rationale 5: It is usually a sign of true labor when contraction pains begin in the back and radiate to the front.

Answer to Question 2

2
Explanation: 2. Providing spiritually sensitive care involves determining the current spiritual and religious beliefs and practices that will affect the mother and baby, accommodating these practices where possible, and examining one's own spiritual or religious beliefs to be more aware and able to provide nonjudgmental care.
