Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The increased insulin resistance that occurs during pregnancy often resolves within a few hours following delivery. Therefore, there is no need to do AccuChecks qid or resume the insulin. The other options are appropriate prescriptions by the health care provider.
