Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: Ventral and atrial septal defects are common in babies with FAS.
Rationale 2: FAS babies are easily overstimulated, and have feeding difficulties, leading to more crying than seen in an average baby.
Rationale 3: Facial characteristics of the FAS child include a broad and flat nasal bridge, wide-set eyes, small chin, and smooth philtrum.
Rationale 4: FAS babies are easily overstimulated, and tend to cry more if swaddled, cuddled, or rocked. A dark and quiet environment helps keep the child calm.
