To tie a fleece blanket, you will need two pieces of fringe (a front and back piece). Tie each knot tightly, but be careful not to pull at the fabric too much. Continue tying the pieces of fleece together until you have tied them all around the blanket. Your fleece-tied blanket is now finished.

Fact

Researchers and psychologists have different views about dreams.

Researchers and psychologists have different definitions and ideas about dreams. Some say it is a manifestation of our emotions. Others say that dreams are completely meaningless; the dream is a memory filter, that when we sleep, our brains store all the memories and information we have. It also suggests that dreams contain a rebound effect and withholding of something leads to dreaming it.

Myth

You shouldn’t travel while pregnant.

It’s normally OK to fly or take car trips while you’re expecting.

Before you make travel plans, keep in mind that you’ll likely feel more comfortable traveling during the middle of your pregnancy. This is usually between 14 to 28 weeks. You’ll be less likely to suffer from morning sickness. Still, you won’t be so large that you have trouble getting around.

When traveling by car, limit the drive to no more than 5 to 6 hours. Most airlines restrict travel in the last weeks of pregnancy. When driving or flying, be sure to walk and stretch every couple of hours. You should also drink enough water to stay hydrated.

And skip the hot tub and the rollercoaster. Hot tubs can raise your body temperature too high. The sudden starts and stops of theme park rides could raise your risk for the placenta problems.
