Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Twilight sleep, or the use of a heavy dose of narcotics and amnesiacs, was used on women during childbirth in the United States during the 1900s. Female midwives attended the majority of births during the 1700s. Care shifted to doctors among middle-class women during the 1800s. Certified nurse midwives and childbirth classes characterize the 2000s.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Fetal mortality may be attributable to maternal factors (e.g., malnutrition, disease, or preterm cervical dilation) or fetal factors (e.g., chromosomal abnormalities or poor placental attachment).
