Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The size and shape of the true pelvis is more important than the false pelvis because the fetal head must be able to pass through for vaginal delivery to occur.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Filling of the breast with milk (engorgement) usually begins in the axillary region on the third postpartum day when the milk comes in. It occurs regardless of whether the mother is breastfeeding or bottle-feeding.
