Question 2 of 5
Using Nägele's Rule, which of the following is the client's estimated date of delivery?
Correct Answer: C

Choice A (13-May) is incorrect as it does not follow the calculation correctly.
Choice B (20-May) is incorrect as it does not align with the calculation based on Nägele's Rule.
Choice D (2-May) is incorrect as it is an earlier date than the calculated estimated date of delivery.
