Pushes solid objects from mouth

Eats pieces of soft, cooked food

Drinks from a cup held by another person

Begins experimenting with a spoon

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,B,C,D

Choice A rationale: Around 10 to 12 months of age, babies develop more advanced oral motor skills and can start to use their tongue to push solid objects out of their mouth. This is a natural reflex that helps prevent choking as they continue to learn how to eat solid foods.
Choice B rationale: Between 8 to 10 months of age, babies start to develop the ability to chew and swallow soft, cooked food. At this stage, they are typically introduced to mashed or finely chopped solid foods to complement their breast milk or formula diet.
Choice C rationale: Newborns typically start with bottle-feeding or breastfeeding. As they grow and develop, they eventually transition to drinking from a cup, which is usually introduced around 6 to 9 months of age. At this stage, the baby is held by another person while they drink from a cup with assistance.
Choice D rationale: Around 6 to 8 months of age, infants start showing an interest in self-feeding and may begin experimenting with a spoon. They may try to scoop food with a spoon but often need assistance and are still primarily dependent on being fed by a caregiver.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale:
Uterine enlargement greater than expected for gestational age is not a typical finding in a possible ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy occurs when the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus, usually in the fallopian tube, and the uterus does not enlarge normally.
Choice B rationale:
Copious vaginal bleeding is not a typical finding in a possible ectopic pregnancy. Vaginal bleeding can occur, but it is not usually copious.
Choice C rationale:
Severe nausea and vomiting are not typically associated with a possible ectopic pregnancy. Nausea and vomiting are common symptoms in early pregnancy, but they are not specific to an ectopic pregnancy.
Choice D rationale:
Pelvic pain is a common finding in a possible ectopic pregnancy. The pain is often sharp, and unilateral, and may be located on one side of the lower abdomen or pelvis.

A. Within 2 days after delivery B. In 6 to 8 days after delivery C. In 3 to 5 days after delivery D. In about 10 days after delivery

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale: While colostrum is present in the first few days after delivery, it takes a few more days for breast milk to "come in" and increase in volume.
Choice B rationale: Waiting for 6 to 8 days for breast milk to come in would be too long after childbirth. Breast milk typically "comes in" sooner, around 3 to 5 days after delivery.
Choice C rationale: Colostrum, the first milk, is typically produced in small amounts during the first few days after delivery. Breast milk usually "comes in" or increases in volume around 3 to 5 days after childbirth. This transition from colostrum to mature milk is normal and expected.
Choice D rationale: Waiting for 10 days for breast milk to come in would be too long after childbirth. Breast milk typically "comes in" sooner, around 3 to 5 days after delivery.
