Question:
A nurse is working in a pregnancy crisis center. A 15-year-old girl comes into the center and requests a pregnancy test. Her test results are positive. To tell her when her baby is due, the nurse will need to know which of these things?
A
the first day of her last menstrual period (LMP)
explanation
The estimated delivery date can be determined by using Naegele’s Rule. It is figured by adding 9 months and 7 days to the first day of a woman’s last menstrual period (LMP). It is based on a 28-day menstrual cycle and a 40-week gestation, which truly makes it an estimate.
