A nurse is collecting data from a 6-month-old infant in the well child clinic.
Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

A.

Infant's birth weight is tripled.

B.

Lateral incisors are present.

C.

Posterior fontanel is closed.

D.

Infant sits well without support.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

Choice A rationale

The infant's birth weight typically doubles by 4-6 months and triples by 1 year of age. If an infant's weight has tripled at 6 months, it may indicate overnutrition or an underlying health condition.

 

Choice B rationale

Lateral incisors usually appear between 9 to 13 months. At 6 months, the central incisors are more likely to be emerging.

 

Choice C rationale

The posterior fontanel typically closes by 2 to 3 months of age. Therefore, by 6 months, it is expected to be closed.

 

Choice D rationale

Infants usually sit without support around 8 months. At 6 months, they may sit with support or briefly without support but not consistently.

Step 2:.5 mg/kg/day × 10 kg = 15 mg/day

Step 3: mg/day ÷ 4 doses/day = 3.75 mg/dose

Step 4:.75 mg ÷ 1 mg/mL = 3.75 mL per dose

The calculated answer is 3.8 mL (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Encouraging independence and self-care skills helps the child develop autonomy and confidence, essential for managing daily activities and improving quality of life.

Choice D rationale

Promoting a sedentary lifestyle is detrimental to health. Physical activity and engagement in activities enhance physical and mental well-being.
