Offering a glass of orange juice
Application of acoustic stimulator on the client’s abdomen
Nipple stimulation

Explanation

Answer: C - Administration of oxytocin or nipple stimulation is used to stimulate fetal movements on the contraction stress test. Offering a glass of orange juice is appropriate for a non-stress test and application of acoustic stimulator on the client’s abdomen is used in vibroacoustic stimulation. Positioning the client on the left side does not stimulate fetal movements.
