Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Maternal factors that increase the chance of having an LGA newborn include maternal diabetes mellitus or glucose intolerance, multiparity, prior history of a macrosomic infant, postdated gestation, maternal obesity, male fetus, and genetics. Drug abuse is associated with SGA newborns and preterm newborns. A maternal history of preeclampsia and infection would be associated with preterm birth.

Answer to Question 2

D, E
Feedback:
To promote personal safety in the preschool-age child, the nurse should instruct families to explain the role and purpose of police to the child and teach to never talk to or accept a ride from a stranger. Reducing the intake of fast-food items will help with weight control. Limiting exposure to household chores has no identified value. Chewing food thoroughly before swallowing can help with digestion and weight control.
