Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D, E
Parents have many concerns about feeding their infant during the first year of life. This is a period when readiness to receive nutrition education is usually high; therefore the nurse looks for opportunities to provide accurate information. Assessment of parental knowledge; infant development, behavior, and readiness; parent-child interaction; and cultural and ethnic practices is important. Sex of the infant does not enter into nutritional education.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
The first DPT, polio, and flu immunizations are given at the age of 2 months.
