Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
True labor contractions feel like lower-back pain that moves gradually around to the abdomen; this is a common discomfort of labor. On the other hand, exaggerated fetal movement, prolonged slowing of the fetal heart rate, and irregular heartbeat indicate fetal distress and should be immediately reported to the practitioner.
