A woman reports that her last normal menstrual period began on March 13, 2022.
What is this woman's expected delivery date using Nagele's rule?
Select one:
January 20, 2022
December 20, 2022
January 20, 2023
December 27, 2022
December 27, 2022
The Correct Answer is B
a. This does not follow the Nagele's rule.
b. Nagele's rule is a method to estimate the expected delivery date by adding 7 days and subtracting 3 months from the first day of the last normal menstrual period. In this case, adding 7 days to March 13 gives March 20, and subtracting 3 months gives December 20. Then, adding one year gives December 20, 2022.
c. This does not follow the Nagele's rule.
d. This does not follow the Nagele's rule.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
a. ROA means right occiput anterior, which would imply that the fetal back is on the mother's right side.
b. RSA means right sacrum anterior, which would imply that the fetal buttocks are in the pelvis inlet and the fetal head is in the fundus.
c. LOA, which means left occiput anterior means that the fetus is in a longitudinal lie, with its head as the presenting part, facing the right posterior quadrant of the mother's pelvis, and its back on the mother's left anterior side. This is one of the most common and favorable fetal positions for delivery.
d. LSP means left sacrum posterior, which would imply that the fetal buttocks are on the mother's left side and slightly rotated toward the back (posterior).
