A nurse is assessing a newborn who is 2 hours old.
Which of the following findings is an indication of hypoglycemia? (Select all that apply)

Choice A rationale
While blood in the stool can be a sign of a problem in older children and adults, it is not uncommon for newborns to pass dark green or black stools (known as meconium) in the first few days after birth. This does not typically indicate a problem.
Choice B rationale
A newborn vomiting eight to ten times per day is a cause for concern. This could indicate a problem such as pyloric stenosis or gastroesophageal reflux disease, both of which require medical attention.
Choice C rationale

Cooling after each breastfeeding is not typically a sign of a problem. Newborns have immature temperature regulation systems, so slight variations in body temperature can occur.
Choice D rationale
Persistent crossing of the eyes in a newborn can be normal up to about 3 months of age. If it continues beyond this point, it may indicate a problem such as strabismus.

Choice A rationale
Facial asymmetry can occur as a result of a forceps-assisted birth. The pressure from the forceps can cause temporary changes in the shape of the baby’s face.
Choice B rationale
Caput succedaneum, a swelling of the scalp in a newborn, is not typically caused by forceps. It is more commonly associated with vacuum extraction.
Choice C rationale
Cephalohematoma, a bleeding underneath one of the cranial bones, is not typically caused by forceps. It is more commonly associated with vacuum extraction.
Choice D rationale

Subgaleal hemorrhage, bleeding into the space between the skull periosteum and the scalp galea aponeurosis, is not typically caused by forceps. It is more commonly associated with vacuum extraction.
