Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Mimicry involves observing and copying the behaviors of other women who are pregnant or are mothers. Wearing maternity clothes before they are needed helps the expectant mother feel what it's like to be obviously pregnant. Daydreaming is a type of fantasy in which the woman tries out a variety of behaviors in preparation for motherhood. Imagining herself as a good mother is the woman's effort to look for a good role fit. She observes behavior of other mothers and compares them with her own expectations. Babysitting other children is a form of role-playing in which the woman practices the expected role of motherhood.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Developing a strong tie in the first trimester and progressing to be in tune is the process of commitment, attachment, and interconnection with the infant. This stage begins in the first trimester and continues throughout the neonatal period. Learning to give of herself is the task that occurs during pregnancy as the woman allows her body to give space to the fetus. She continues with giving to others in the form of food and presents. Securing acceptance of the baby is a process that continues throughout pregnancy as the woman reworks relationships. Seeking safe passage is the task that ends with birth. During this task, the woman seeks health care and carries out cultural practices.
