After a difficult marriage, pregnancy and delivery, Jackie observed her infant, Kelly, immediately being given the Apgar and then again five minutes later where she was only told Kelly scored a 5. About two days, Jackie saw Kelly being tested again, this time with what the nurse told her was the NBAS and that Kelly did well. Jackie is very confused, worried, and does not understand what either of these tests are about nor what they mean for her or Kelly. She is also worried that these tests may have something to do with all of the things she went through throughout her pregnancy that she has yet to disclose. Based on what you have learned about the the Apgar and NBAS assessments, what would you tell Jackie to help her better understand these tests, Kelly's scores, and what this information means for her and Kelly's development?
