Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
If the hip joint seems to lock short of this distance of 180 degrees, hip subluxation is suggested. Inward rotation of the right foot, crying when straightening the leg, or drawing the legs underneath when prone does not indicate hip subluxation.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Although hCG, hPL, and progesterone decline rapidly after birth, decreased estrogen levels are associated with breast engorgement and with the diuresis of excess extracellular fluid accumulated during pregnancy.
