Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback
A Descent is the moving of the fetus through the birth canal.
B Engagement occurs when the largest diameter of the fetal presenting part has
passed the pelvic inlet.
C Flexion of the fetal head allows the smallest head diameters pass through the
pelvis.
D The station is the relationship of the fetal presenting part to the level of the
ischial spines.

Answer to Question 2

A
The woman would be happy because she is experiencing early labor. Irritability usually occurs during the active and especially transition phases of the first stage of labor. Becoming panicked may occur at any point, but usually during the latent phase as she is preparing to leave for the hospital and during the admission process. Becoming serious is typical of the late active phase through transition and through the birth.
