High level response 14-20 A good candidate will cover a wide variety of foods that are suitable for a baby during the whole weaning period in well-documented detail. The response will also cover advice for parents on mealtimes ensuring that the child enjoys the experience in both a positive and negative approach. Mid-range response 7-13 A mid-level candidate will cover foods available in some detail and offer advice for parents, but will lack detail. Low level response 0-6 A low-level candidate will mention some foods although this will lack detail and offer very limited advice for parents. Look for: Foods such as baby rice, mashed potato and gravy, mashed banana, stewed fruit, steamed vegetables, meat stew that have been made into a puree or put through a blender for a young baby. A 6 month old baby can chew so foods such as rusks, sandwiches, piece of fruit, toast, cheese are suitable. 9 months to 1 year babies are on a diet of solid foods and may have given up the bottle or breast and are eating a range of foods like the rest of the family. There may be a mention of commercially prepared foods. Enjoying mealtimes advice may include: Serving food attractively A variety of food Serving small portions Ensuring the food is not too hot Avoiding strong flavours Setting a good example Making mealtimes a social, happy time.

Page 9 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE EXAMINATIONS – JUNE 2003 0637 1 © University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate 2003 15 Marks are awarded according to the quality of the response. High-level response 14-20 A good candidate will provide all the three stages of labour in the correct order and in detail. The methods of pain relief will be covered in detail and show a wide variety. Mid-level response 7-13 A mid-level candidate will give the stages of labour in some detail and in the correct order. A few methods of pain relief will be covered. Low-level response 0-6 A low-level candidate will go through the process of labour but not in any detail or may be not in the usual order. Methods of pain relief will be brief. Look for: Stage one The neck of the uterus opens. A show-blood stained mucus comes away. The breaking of the waters and regular contractions. During the first stage the contractions slowly pull open the cervix until it is 10cm wide. This is the longest stage of labour and is at an end when the cervix is fully open. Stage two The baby passes through the birth canal. The uterus, cervix and vagina have now become the birth canal. The contractions are very strong and push the baby along the canal. The mother must also push. Crowning is when the baby's head appears from the vagina. The rest of the body follows and the baby is born. An episiotomy is often made to help the baby out. Stage three The baby becomes a separate person. The umbilical cord is cut and the contractions continue and push out the placenta. Methods of pain relief: Relaxation and breathing exercises – natural way of giving birth. Birthing pools – filled with warm water helps the mother to relax. Pethidine – an injection to ease the pain; can make the baby drowsy. Gas and air – breathed through a mask or mouth piece. Epidural anaesthetic – numbs the lower abdomen, needs to be inserted by a specialist. Music and aromatherapy – may need to be arranged by the mother in advance. TENS machine – pads that are placed on the mother's back and connected to a device that can control pain with a weak electric current.
