Answer to Question 1

D
The size of the placenta has not been shown to affect labor time. The adequate size of the pelvis is a factor. A pelvis that is too small in comparison to fetal size to allow the fetus to move through it for birthing will prolong labor. The mental attitude of the mother is a factor. The mother who works through the contractions, allowing the full power of the contractions to effectively dilate the cervix will facilitate her labor. Posterior fetal presentations cause the labor to be extended, because this position is not as effective in resulting in cervical dilation as anterior fetal presentations.

Answer to Question 2

B
The macrosomic infant is at greatest risk for birth injuries secondary to cephalopelvic disproportion.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
