Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: The nurse would prepare for a version.
Rationale 2: Amniotomy is the artificial rupture of membranes.
Rationale 3: Leopold's maneuvers are a series of palpations performed to determine fetal position.
Rationale 4: Ballottement occurs when the fetus floats away and then returns to touch an examiner's hand during a vaginal exam.

Answer to Question 2

1,4
Rationale 1: Infertility is often stressful on a marriage, as a result of the need to schedule intercourse and pay for treatments, and the societal expectation to have children.
Rationale 2: Some infertility cannot be explained, despite extensive treatments.
Rationale 3: Insurance often does not pay for infertility treatment.
Rationale 4: Communication is important to help cope with stress. A nurse should always encourage patients to ask questions.
Rationale 5: A common myth is that taking a vacation or just relaxing will result in conception. This is not necessarily true.
