Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The umbilical cord should have one vein and two arteries. The other findings are normal.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
These behaviors are common in the transition phase of labor. The nurse should not leave her alone but should gently reassure her and guide her in her breathing. She may not want to be touched.
