Answer to Question 1

F
The AAP states that breastfeeding should not be precluded for most high-risk neonates and
infants, including those with congenital heart disease. The benefits of breastfeeding these
infants includes; higher and more stable oxygen saturation measurements, improved
weight gain, and shorter hospital stays.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Acyclovir is used to treat varicella pneumonia.
B The baby is already born and has received the immunities. If the mother never
had chickenpox, she cannot transmit the immunities to the baby.
C Varicella infection occurring in a newborn may be life threatening.
D Varicella (chickenpox) is highly contagious. Although the baby inherits
immunity from the mother, it would not be safe to expose either the mother or
the baby.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
