Answer to Question 1

A
Brachycephaly, low-set ears, epicanthal folds are characteristics of Down syndrome (trisomy 21). Microcephaly, polydactyly, hypoplasia of the pelvis, elongated lower limbs, microphthalmia, malformed ears are characteristics of trisomy 13 . Rocker-bottom feet, flexion deformities, adducted hips are characteristics of trisomy 18.

Answer to Question 2

D
The client is most likely experiencing engorged breasts. Therefore the nurse should discuss breastfeeding the infant on demand with the physician. An infection would not be present within that time period. Also, the use of systemic antibiotics can be transmitted through the breast milk.
