Which of the following is an abnormal physical change during pregnancy that should be checked by a healthcare provider?
  1. Increased white or clear vaginal discharge
  2. Dizziness or faintness at rest
  3. Visual disturbances
  4. Frequent urination
Explanation
Answer: B - Dizziness or faintness is normal when changing positions, but if it happens at rest it can be a signal that something is amiss. Increasing vaginal discharge as pregnancy progresses is normal, unless it has a foul odor, is stained pink, or is accompanied by a fever. Visual disturbances are a common side effect of increased blood volume. Frequent urination is another common pregnancy symptom, especially in the first and third trimesters, and is not a concern unless accompanied by pain or fever.
