If it is not, know that you will have to put in extra effort to care for the fabric. Some rayon composite fabrics won't require hand washing or dry-cleaning. If you prefer machine-washable fabrics, look for pieces that are a combination of rayon and a sturdier fabric, such as cotton. Handle with great care during laundering due to the fragility of rayon. Rayon can even dissolve during laundering, so it's finickiness needs to be taken into account. One of the easiest ways to care for rayon is to have it dry-cleaned. Take your rayon garment into a professional cleaner, and let them know that you are looking for help caring for your rayon garment. Know that dry cleaning can add up. A shirt may cost anywhere from one to five dollars depending upon your location and your cleaner, while something like a blanket or quilt might cost up to thirty dollars. your rayon. Your tag will tell you what, exactly, you need to take care of your rayon piece. The general standard, though, is a mild detergent and warm water. Fill a clean sink or basin with water slightly above room temperature. Add a mild detergent, such as one that says it is made for delicate fabrics. Soak your rayon fabric in the basin until it completely wet. Then, gently swirl your fabric around the basin using your hands. Avoid harsh or rapid movements, such as those that would cause a splash. Agitate your fabric for three to five minutes. Remove the fabric from the basin and rinse under a faucet of warm water until suds stop forming. Gently squeeze the excess water out from the fabric. Avoid harsh wringing and twisting of the fabric. Only machine wash a rayon garment if it says to do so. It will need the short, delicates cycle in your washing machine on a medium to low temperature. Understand that rayon fabric may shrink or deteriorate in the machine, especially if it is not recommended for machine washing. Dry rayon knits flat.

Simply clip to a drying rack or use a hanger. Avoid using a dryer or anything that may tumble the clothes, as this may damage or rip the fabric. A knit fabric will stretch in all directions, while a woven fabric will only stretch diagonally. Try stretching your fabric lightly both side to side and diagonally to tell. If it only stretches diagonally, it is woven.

Wrap cushions in a plastic tarp if you are short on space. Move cushions to enclosed, dry spots for better protection. Store the cushions under a bench or steps to conserve space."
article: An easy way to store your cushions is by purchasing a storage unit from a general store. Plastic bins are often resealable and effective at keeping water and pests out. Plastic bins can be placed in areas that may be a little damp, such as a shed or basement. Make sure the storage unit is clean before placing your cushions in it. You can rinse it out with soap and water if it appears dirty. Fabric bags are made with natural materials, such as canvas. This allows air to circulate in the bag, preventing moisture from collecting on the cushions. They fit around your cushions, so they aren't big and bulky like many plastic containers are. You can order fabric bags online and find them at some general retailers. Organic fibers, such as linen and cotton, benefit from the air circulation fabric bags provide. If a fabric bag gets wet, your cushions will too. Avoid storing them in damp locations. Plastic tarps are a makeshift storage option, and keeping moisture out isn't guaranteed. You can seal cushions better by wrapping them more tightly in the plastic. The wrapped cushions can then be placed wherever you have space, from your garage to your attic. You can find tarps at most home improvement stores. Plastic tarps resist water well. However, water may still drip inside improperly-wrapped cushions. If the wrapping comes undone, your cushions will be exposed to the air, which can be an issue in a humid environment. Enclosed areas are the best storage spaces. After you have selected a storage method, put your cushions on a shelf in your garage, attic, or a similar spot. Make sure there is no moisture in this spot, since any water can mean you will uncover mold-stained cushions in spring. Enclosed areas like sheds offer protection from rain. However, be aware of water leaks as well as moisture in the air. If you open nearby doors and windows a lot, humidity and temperature changes can damage the cushions. Make sure your bench or steps are solid so water doesn't drip through them. If your cushions aren't sealed, rain can be a problem. Wrap your cushions in plastic first to ensure they stay as dry as possible. If the bench or steps are out in the open, make sure water doesn't soak the ground around the cushions. These storage spots can leave your cushions vulnerable to pests that chew through fabric, such as bugs and rats.

The relationship between you and your doctor or midwife is very important. When you are pregnant, make sure that you are working with a healthcare professional whom you trust. Talk to your doctor about your baby's development, and the best ways for you to hear the heartbeat, both at home and in her office. Choose a doctor who thoroughly and patiently answers all of your questions. Ask your doctor when you can first expect to hear the heartbeat. Most physicians will schedule for a prenatal exam in your ninth or tenth week. Before your visit, make sure to prepare a list of questions to ask your doctor. The moment will be even more special if you understand what is happening and what to expect. This will be an exciting and emotional visit. Ask your partner or a close friend or family member to come with you to the appointment to share in your excitement. Talk to your doctor about what type of exam he will use to hear the heartbeat. Typically, you will first hear the sound when your doctor or technician uses a fetal doppler, which uses sound waves to amplify the heartbeat. You will lie down on an exam table and the doctor will move a small probe on the surface of your stomach. This is a painless procedure. While your doctor can usually detect the baby's heartbeat at nine to 10 weeks, sometimes it takes until 12 weeks to easily detect it. If your doctor schedules you for an early ultrasound, you may be able to hear the heartbeat through ultrasound as soon as your eighth week of pregnancy. This is typically performed early if you have some elevated risk factors in your pregnancy. Otherwise, the doctor will typically wait until you are at least 1012 weeks along. Be aware that your doctor might be able to use a stethoscope to listen to your baby's heartbeat. However, this instrument is not as powerful as others, so he likely will not do this until you are well into your second trimester. Your doctor or midwife might also use a fetoscope, which is specially designed to listen to fetal heartbeats.
