Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale:
1. The mother's age, the youngest child's age, and the father's age are not markers, according to Duvall.
2. The mother's age, the youngest child's age, and the father's age are not markers, according to Duvall.
3. The oldest child's age serves as a marker for the family's developmental stage, except in the last two stages, when children are no longer present.
4. The mother's age, the youngest child's age, and the father's age are not markers, according to Duvall.

Answer to Question 2

D
The uterus should be palpated every 15 minutes for the first 1 to 2 hours postpartum. Massage is indicated if the uterus is boggy and should be done only until the uterus becomes firm. The vital signs should be monitored every 15 minutes for the first 1 to 2 hours postpartum.
