Answer to Question 1

1
Feedback
1. This measure should be taken because exercise can lower blood sugar levels, so adding the extra carbohydrate and protein snack will help the blood sugar levels maintain a normal level. This means that the child is less likely to have a hypoglycemic episode.
2. Children with diabetes must have extra carbohydrate and protein servings prior to exercise. This is because exercise can lower blood sugar levels.
3. The extra dose does not stabilize the blood glucose level long term.
4. Protein snacks help keep the blood glucose level stable and within normal limits.

Answer to Question 2

4
Feedback
1. Improves nutritional outcomes for the infant
2. Breastfeeding requires no bottle preparation
3. Positive bonding occurs in breastfeeding
4. Breastfeeding is the optimal method of feeding because it provides all nutrients, minerals, and vitamins needed. There is no bottle required and baby and mother can bond.
