Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Ginger helps nausea, and is safe for use during pregnancy.
Rationale 2: First-trimester fatigue is common; fatigue usually improves during the second trimester.
Rationale 3: Increased white vaginal discharge, leucorrhea, is common during pregnancy. Green discharge is not a normal finding, and indicates a bacterial infection.
Rationale 4: As the uterus rises in the pelvis during the second trimester, urinary frequency improves. Urinary frequency increases again during the end of the third trimester as the fetal head descends into the pelvis.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Statements that encourage the parents to touch the newborn will help them bond with their child.
Rationale 2: Statements that encourage the parents to stroke the newborn will help them bond with their child and provide stimulation.
Rationale 3: The nurse always should encourage parents to visit and get to know their newborn, even in the NICU.
Rationale 4: Comments that personalize the baby will tell the parents their baby is unique and special.
