Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The woman who delays childbearing may have unique concerns, one of which is having less energy than younger mothers. The older mother is better off financially and can afford better nutrition. Information about exercise and fitness is readily available. The older mother usually has more financial means to search out effective contraceptive methods.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The brain grows most rapidly in the third trimester and is most vulnerable to alcohol exposure during this time. The major concerns are mental retardation, learning disabilities, high activity level, and short attention span. The risk to the client for abusing other substances is not the major risk for the infant. It has not been proven that daily consumption of alcohol indicates a risk for alcoholism.
