One modifiable risk factor is being improperly swaddled, so the infant\u2019s legs are wrapped tightly in an extended position, instead of wrapped loosely so the legs can move freely. It is important for the nurse to teach clients how to properly swaddle an infant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Incorrect_answer_explanations\"><\/span>Incorrect answer explanations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Oligohydramnios\"><\/span>A. Oligohydramnios<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rationale:<\/strong>&nbsp;Oligohydramnios is a deficiency of amniotic fluid.
