Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Zidovudine (ZVD) is given intravenously during labor to reduce the risk of mother-to-child transmission of HIV.

Choice B rationale

HIV-positive mothers are advised not to breastfeed as HIV can be transmitted through breast milk. This statement indicates the need for further teaching.

Choice C rationale

Administering Zidovudine (ZVD) orally to the baby immediately after birth for 6 weeks is standard practice to prevent HIV transmission.

Choice D rationale

Adherence to taking Zidovudine (ZVD) at the same time every day during pregnancy is crucial for maintaining effective drug levels and reducing the risk of mother-to-child transmission.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that is not specific to pregnancy. It is characterized by red, scaly patches and requires medical treatment.

Choice B rationale

Jaundice, indicated by yellowing of the skin and eyes, is a sign of liver dysfunction and is not related to normal pregnancy changes.

Choice C rationale

Erythema toxicum is a common, benign rash that occurs in newborns, not in pregnant women. It appears as red spots with small pustules and resolves on its own.

Choice D rationale

Linea negra is a dark line that appears on the abdomen during pregnancy due to hormonal changes. It is a common finding in the third trimester.
