,3. Which Statement Made By A Parent Would Be Consistent With A Developmental Delay?

Ans: B
Critical Developmental Milestones For Gross Motor Development In A 12 Month Old Include
Standing Briefly Without Support, Getting To A Sitting Position, And Pulling To Stand. If A 12-
Month- Old Child Does Not Perform These Activities, It May Be Indicative Of A
Developmental Delay. An Infant Who Responds To His Name At 9 Months Of Age Is
Demonstrating Abilities To Both Hear And Interpret Sound. A Social Smile Is Present By 2
Months Of Age. Rolling Over In Both Directions Is Not A Critical Milestone For Gross Motor
Development Until The Child Reaches 6 Months Of Age.

A Healthy 2-Month-Old Infant. Mmr Is Given At Or After 12 Months Of Age. Oral Polio
Vaccine (Opv) Is No Longer Administered In The U.S.
5. The Nurse Advises The Mother Of A 3-Month-Old Infant, Exclusively Breast-Fed, To:
a. Start Giving The Infant A Vitamin D Supplement.
, b. start using an infant feeder and add rice cereal to the formula.
c. start feeding the infant rice cereal with a spoon at the evening feeding.
d. continue breast-feeding without any supplements.
ans: a
breast milk does not provide an adequate amount of dietary vitamin d. infants who are
exclusively breast-fed need vitamin d supplements to prevent rickets. an infant feeder is an
inappropriate method of providing the infant with caloric intake. solid foods and rice cereal are
not recommended for a 3-month-old infant. solid feedings do not typically begin before 4 to 6
months of age. because breast milk is not an adequate source of fluoride, infants need to be
given a fluoride supplement.
6. at months of age, an infant should first be expected to locate an object hidden from
view.
a. 4
b. 6
c. 9
d. 20
ans: c
by 9 months of age an infant will actively search for an object that is out of sight. four-month-
old infants are not cognitively capable of searching out objects hidden from their view. infants at
this developmental level do not pursue hidden objects. six-month-old infants have not developed
the ability to perceive objects as permanent and do not search out objects hidden from their view.
twenty-month-old infants actively pursue objects not in their view and are capable of recalling
the location of an object not in their view. they first look for hidden objects around the age of 9
months.
