Correct Answer is ["B","E","F"]

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

The statement suggests supplementing with formula due to the baby’s weight loss. However, a 5% weight loss in the first few days is normal for breastfed infants, and formula

supplementation is not necessary unless recommended by a healthcare provider. Early breastfeeding should be encouraged to increase milk supply and support newborn weight gain.

Choice B rationale:

This statement correctly indicates that newborns should feed 8 to 12 times per day and on demand to ensure adequate nutrition and promote milk production. Frequent breastfeeding

helps establish and maintain milk supply.

Choice C rationale:

Using plastic-lined breast pads can retain moisture and increase the risk of infection or irritation. Sore nipples can be managed with lanolin creams, air-drying, and proper latching

techniques during breastfeeding.

Choice D rationale:

Drinking more whole milk is a common misconception and does not directly increase a mother's milk supply. Milk production is influenced by frequent breastfeeding, proper hydration,

and balanced nutrition, not by specific types of foods or drinks.

Choice E rationale:

Newborn stools transition from dark greenish meconium to yellow, seedy stools within the first few days of life as breastfeeding becomes established. This indicates effective feeding

and milk intake.

Choice F rationale:

It is normal for a breastfeeding mother’s breasts to feel full, warm, and slightly tender as her milk comes in. This indicates that the milk supply is increasing and the body is responding

to the newborn’s feeding needs.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Uteroplacental insufficiency leads to late decelerations, which are characterized by a gradual decrease in fetal heart rate after the peak of a contraction. This indicates compromised blood flow between the uterus and placenta, affecting the fetus.

Choice B rationale

Umbilical cord compression usually causes variable decelerations, not late decelerations.

Choice C rationale

Maternal bradycardia does not cause changes in fetal heart rate patterns like late decelerations.

Choice D rationale

Fetal head compression causes early decelerations, which coincide with contractions, not late decelerations.
