Question 1 of 5
A pregnant client's last menstrual period was May 4th, 2013. What is this client's estimated delivery date using Naegele's Rule?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Naegele's rule is a standard way of calculating an estimated delivery date (EDD). It involves subtracting three months from the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP), adding seven days, and then adding one year. In this case, subtracting three months from May 4th, 2013, gives February 4th. Adding seven days results in a due date of February 11th, 2014.
