Choice A rationale
Rust-stained urine is not a normal finding in a full-term newborn and should be reported to the provider. However, it is not typically assessed upon admission to the nursery.
Choice B rationale
Subconjunctival hemorrhage, or a small red or pink spot on the white of the eye, can occur due to the pressure changes during the birth process. It is a harmless condition that does not affect the baby’s vision and does not require treatment.
Choice C rationale
Single palmar creases, also known as “simian lines,” can be a normal variation in hand creases. However, they are also associated with certain genetic conditions, such as Down syndrome, and should be reported to the provider.
Choice D rationale
Transient circumoral cyanosis, or bluish color around the mouth, can be a normal finding in newborns when they are cold or after crying. However, if it persists, it could indicate a problem with the baby’s heart or lungs and should be reported to the provider.

Choice A rationale
Using a lubricant during intercourse can actually decrease the chances of conception. Some lubricants can affect the pH balance in the vagina, which can affect sperm motility and survival.

Choice B rationale
Taking daily hot baths is not recommended as a fertility treatment. In fact, frequent hot baths can negatively affect male fertility by increasing the temperature of the testes, which can reduce sperm count.
Choice C rationale
Drinking herbal tea two times daily is not a proven method to increase fertility. While some herbs are believed to have fertility-boosting properties, their effectiveness varies greatly and some can even be harmful. It’s important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new herbal regimen.
Choice D rationale
Maintaining a healthy weight can improve fertility. Both underweight and overweight conditions can lead to irregular menstrual cycles and ovulation, which can make it more difficult to conceive. A healthy weight can also reduce the risk of pregnancy complications
