The mother of a 2-year-old child with a spica cast to correct her hip dysplasia is concerned because the child is vomiting after eating. The child's body temperature is normal. What should the nurse respond to this mother's concern?
 
  A) Bring the child to the hospital if a fever develops or is unable to keep food down for 24 hours.
  B) The vomiting is a possible sign of infection and the child should be brought to the hospital.
  C) This is a reaction to the analgesics. Observe the child for the next eight hours and see what happens.
