INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Make sure your ideas are consistent with the rest of what you've written; for example, a happily-ever-after ending might work for a romance story but perhaps not for a horror story. Make sure your chosen ending tells your readers what they want to know. Don't leave any loose threads hanging; for example, if one of your characters was about to have surgery in the middle of the story, your readers will probably want to know what happened to her. As writer Kurt Vonnegut advised, "Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted." Endings such as "it was all a dream" or "they were dead all along" are usually a bad idea, as they almost never resolve conflict or provide a logical conclusion, and this can make your reader feel like they were tricked. Avoid the deus ex machina  (literally, "god in the machine") ending, where something happens to occur in the nick of time to help a character overcome a difficult obstacle: for example, a detective in a suspense story only solves the mystery because he gets a call from a mysterious person who has all the answers. Try not to "change the rules" on your reader. So, for example, if your heroine has never wanted to get married and she changes her mind at the end of your story, make sure that her reasons for that decision are shown throughout the story, rather than just having it suddenly happen. For example: "Millie walked to the closet. She listened to the scratching within and tried to overcome her fear. Suddenly she grabbed the handle and opened the door. A little mouse ran out of the closet, and she laughed." This way you know exactly what happens; you will come back and polish the language in Part 4.  Keep an eye on length. A good ending will be proportionate to the rest of the story.

SUMMARY: Choose your favorite ideas from your brainstorming and free-writing. Compare your potential ending with the story outline you wrote in Part 1. Respect your reader. Ensure that your ending follows the internal logic you've established in the story. Write out the final events in concise sentences.

Your pediatrician will be able to give you great information about how you can limit the chance of your little one catching the flu from someone at home.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: First of all, you must stop whatever are you doing in that moment and sit down; after a few minutes of rest, the cramps should decrease in intensity or even disappear.  If the pain lasts longer or they are really intense,  call your doctor and tell him or her about  your symptoms because it might be a more serious problem. Sometimes it helps to lean a little bit to the side that hurts; this way, you can relax the muscles in that area and reduce the pain you feel. To relieve a cramp in your leg, lie on your back momentarily and then extend the affected leg while keeping the knee straight. Try to position yourself so that the foot is bent backwards until the pain is gone.  Another means of stretching the legs is by riding a stationary bike for 30 minutes daily. Brisk walking is also a way of improving circulation in the lower extremities. You might be tempted to use some medication for treating the pain; it is very important to know that many of the drugs used today, unfortunately, may have severe adverse or teratogenic effects (they can lead to congenital malformations or other abnormalities).  Because of this, it is important to check with your doctor before using any over-the-counter medications.  Consider taking acetaminophen (the brand name is Tylenol) because it is considered a safe drug to take during pregnancy. The recommended dosage is 325 to 650 mg every 4 to 6 hours (unless stated otherwise by your physician).  Another frequently used drug for pain relief is ibuprofen (Nurofen and other trademarks); this must be avoided during pregnancy, especially during the last trimester because it promotes premature closure of a fetal structure called ductus arteriosus (DA). You might try to reduce the pain by applying a warm compress to the area where you are experiencing cramps. However, be careful not to keep it against your skin for too long as it may cause nerve damage to your skin. Once you begin to feel relief, remove the warm compress.  You can apply the warm compress to the area again if the cramps come back. You can also consider taking a warm bath rather than using a warm compress. The heat will have a soothing effect on your muscles, which can help to calm cramps that you have.

SUMMARY:
Sit down and rest for a moment. Stretch the affected area. Take pain medications that are safe for use during pregnancy. Apply a warm compress to the area with the cramps.
