| B) | Most babies sit steadily at 4 months. | |
| C) | Most babies do not sit steadily until 8 months. | |
| D) | Sitting ability and the age of first tooth eruption are correlated. | |
| Ans: | C | |
| Feedback: | ||
| An 8-month-old child can sit securely without any additional support. Babies are not able to sit steadily at age 3 or 4 months. Sitting ability does not correspond with tooth eruption. | ||
| 2. | During an assessment, the nurse determines that a 3-month-old baby has a Moro reflex. What does this finding indicate to the nurse? | |
| A) | It usually lasts until 9 months. | |
| B) | It will persist until the age of 1 year. | |

| D) | If present at 3 months of age, a neurologic exam is needed. | |
| Ans: | C | |
| Feedback: | ||

| Feedback: | ||
| Nurses can help the nation achieve the 2020 National Health Goals to promote health during the infant year by educating parents about the importance of using infant car seats, continuing exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months, and instigating measures to prevent SIDS such as placing infants to sleep on their backs. The introduction of solid food would occur after the age of 6 months. Immunizations are provided throughout the infant year. | ||

| B) | Keep the child stimulated with many toys. | |
| C) | Talk to the child at a special time each day. | |
| D) | Expose the child to many caregivers to help learn variability. | |
| Ans: | A | |
| Feedback: | ||
| Consistently responding to an infant’s needs helps to build a sense of trust, which is Erikson’s developmental task during the infant period. Stimulation with toys, talking at a special time each day, and exposing to many caregivers will not help the child develop a sense of trust. | ||
