Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The infant who falls asleep during feeding may not have fed adequately and should be gently aroused to continue the feeding. Breastfeeding should continue. By offering a bottle, breast milk production will decrease. The infant should be aroused and feeding continued.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The term newborn being fed with formula requires 100 to 110 kcal/kg to meet nutritional needs each day. 50 to 75 kcal/kg is too little and 120 to 140 kcal/kg and 150 to 200 kcal/kg are too much.
