A late middle-aged mother who is certain she is not pregnant tells the nurse at an office visit that she has urinary problems and sensations of bearing down and of something in her vagina.
 
  The nurse would realize that she is most likely suffering from: 1. pelvic relaxation.
  2. cystocele and/or rectocele.
  3. uterine displacement.
  4. genital fistulas.

Question 2

A pregnant woman experiencing nausea and vomiting should:
 
  1. drink a glass of water with a fat-free carbohydrate before getting out of bed in the morning.
  2. eat small, frequent meals (every 2 to 3 hours).
  3. increase the intake of high-fat foods to keep the stomach full and coated.
  4. limit fluid intake throughout the day.
