Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A Correct. Feeding time is crucial to the development of the caregiver-newborn attachment, since it is time for the newborn and caregiver to interact and learn about each other. If the newborn remains in the crib or in an infant seat with the bottle propped, the attachment process can be delayed.
B Incorrect. If the nurse observes the mother of a newborn feeding the newborn in the infant seat with the bottle propped, it is not appropriate to congratulate the mother for finding a safe place for the baby to take the bottle.
C Incorrect. If the nurse observes the mother of a newborn feeding the newborn in the infant seat with the bottle propped, it is not appropriate to tell the mother that this procedure encourages independence in the newborn.
D Incorrect. If the nurse observes the mother of a newborn feeding the newborn in the infant seat with the bottle propped, it is not appropriate to suggest that the mother let the older children hold the bottle for the baby in the infant seat.

Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
