A nurse is collecting data from an adolescent during a routine prenatal visit at 26 weeks of gestation.
Which of the following statements by the adolescent indicates they have accepted the pregnancy?

Choice A rationale

Tetracycline is contraindicated in pregnancy due to its potential to cause fetal harm, including teeth discoloration and inhibition of bone growth.

Choice B rationale

Acyclovir is an antiviral medication used to treat herpes infections, not chlamydia.

Choice C rationale

Metronidazole is used to treat bacterial vaginosis and trichomoniasis, not chlamydia.

Choice D rationale

Amoxicillin is a safe and effective antibiotic for treating chlamydia in pregnant women. It is preferred due to its safety profile and effectiveness.

Choice A rationale

Placing the newborn supine and applying pressure to the soles of the feet is not the correct method to elicit the Babinski reflex. This action does not stimulate the appropriate nerve pathways involved in the reflex.

Choice B rationale

Stroking upward on the lateral aspect of the sole of the newborn’s foot is the correct method to elicit the Babinski reflex. This action stimulates the plantar reflex, causing the big toe to extend upward and the other toes to fan out.

Choice C rationale

Pulling the newborn up by the wrist from a supine position is used to elicit the traction response, not the Babinski reflex. The traction response involves the newborn flexing their arms and attempting to lift their head.

Choice D rationale

Touching the corner of the newborn’s mouth elicits the rooting reflex, not the Babinski reflex. The rooting reflex causes the newborn to turn their head toward the stimulus and open their mouth.
