"Too much sodium can cause central nervous system malforma tions." D. "Consuming canned foods will help reduce my sodium levels." - ANSWER : A. "I should avoid eating potato chips." Sodium restriction is often not necessary for pregnant clients, unless they are at an increase risk of pregnancy -induced hypertensi on (PIH).

Increased urinary stagnation causes urinary tract infections B. Increased urinary frequency causes sodium depletion C. Decreased nocturia causes sodium increases D.

Sh ow the child where and how to touch the baby B. Involve the child in bringing the baby home C. Encourage the child to interact with the baby D. Feed the baby separately from the child - ANSWER : A. Show the child where and how to touch the baby The schoo l-age child generally takes a more specific, or clinical interest in the mother's pregnancy.

Which presumptive sign should the nurse recognize as a possible indication of pregnancy? A. Urinary frequency B. Breast changes C. Amenorrhea D. Quickening - ANSWER : A. Urinary frequency Presumptive signs of pregnancy include quickening, a menorrhea, breast changes, and urinary frequency. The nurse should recognize that urinary frequency can be a sign of pregnancy because the hCG hormone increases the blood flow to the kidneys during pregnancy and the pressure of the enlarging uterus on the bladder during the first trimester.
