Answer to Question 1

B
Of the methods listed, condoms and foam would be the best for this couple.
Fertility awareness is not that effective and an unwanted pregnancy could result.
They want another child so a vasectomy with a reversal would not be an appropriate option.
Withdrawal is the least effective form of birth control.

Answer to Question 2

D
When the fetus is in the left occiput posterior position, each contraction pushes the fetal head against the mother's sacrum, which results in intense back discomfort.
