A nurse is providing teaching about increasing dietary fiber to an antepartum client who reports constipation.
Which of the following food selections has the highest fiber content per cup?

Naegele’s rule is a method for estimating the due date of a baby based on the woman’s last menstrual period (LMP).

It involves adding seven days and subtracting three months from the first day of the LMP.

It assumes a 28-day menstrual cycle and a 280-day gestation period, which may vary for different women 1.

Using this rule, if the client’s last menstrual period was March 20, then adding seven days would give March 27.

Subtracting three months would give December 27 of the previous year.

Adding one year would give December 27 of the current year, which is the estimated date of delivery in MMDD format: 1227.

Choice A reason

"I can use natural-skin condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections." This statement is incorrect. Natural-skin or lambskin condoms are not recommended for preventing sexually transmitted infections (STIs). They may provide some protection against pregnancy but do not effectively protect against STIs. Clients should use latex or polyurethane condoms to reduce the risk of STIs.

Choice B reason

"I can use petroleum jelly as a lubricant with the condom." This statement is also incorrect. Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) and other oil-based lubricants can damage latex condoms, leading to a higher risk of breakage or failure. Clients should use water-based or silicone-based lubricants with latex or polyurethane condoms.

Choice C reason:

"I can re-use the condom one time after initial use." This statement is incorrect. Condoms are designed for single-use only. Reusing a condom increases the risk of breakage, failure, and the transmission of STIs or unwanted pregnancy. Clients should always use a new condom for each sexual act.

Choice D reason:

"I can store the condoms in the drawer of my nightstand." This statement is correct because it indicates that the client understands the proper storage of condoms. Storing condoms in a cool, dry place, such as a drawer or a condom case, helps protect them from damage or deterioration, ensuring they remain effective when needed.
