In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Many women describe contractions as a pain that begins in the lower back and moves in a wavelike fashion toward the abdomen. The feeling is described as being akin to menstrual cramps or constipation. With each contraction, the pain is mild at first, it builds to a peak, and then it subsides.  During contractions, the abdomen becomes rigid. For some women, the pain stays in the lower back area. Contractions feel a little different for everyone. At the beginning of labor, most contractions last from 60 - 90 seconds and occur every 15 to 20 minutes. They decrease in duration and increase in frequency as labor draws closer. It's common to feel a contraction now and then in the months leading up to labor. Your body is "practicing" for the main event, and it's usually no cause for alarm. When your due date approaches and you feel several contractions that seem to be following a regular pattern, time them so you can determine whether you're going into labor.
Summary: Recognize what a contraction feels like. Start timing when you feel a few in a row.

Rodents, however small, are wild animals. They may bite if threatened. Additionally, they can transmit a variety of diseases. Wear tough gloves and long sleeves if you must touch them, but you should try to avoid this as much as is possible by using a sealable bag to contain the rodent. Live traps are popular among people who don't want to kill rodents as they offer a chance to release the animal into the wild. Also consider removing the cause for the infestation - the presence of rodents can be a symptom of a dirty, food-rich environment for the rodents to live in.  If you use a live trap, you should know that the survival rate for relocated rats is very low, so releasing them to a new location will often result in them dying.  Removing the causes for an infestation is the only way to remain rat-free long-term. If the animal is wounded, releasing it into the wild can cause a more painful, drawn-out death than if it were quickly euthanized. It might be unpleasant, but it can be more humane to kill it, if you can do this. Agitating the rodent can cause it struggle, flee, or fight. Minimize unnecessary stimulation - handle the rodent gently, don't shine bright lights at it, and don't make loud noises.

One-sentence summary -- Protect yourself. Assess any available non-lethal options. Be conscious of the rodent's condition. Attempt to stress the rodent as little as possible.

Problem: Article: Just about anything can be used to make an obstacle course, including paper cups, toilet paper tubes, small toy cars, and building blocks.

The towel will give your hamster more traction as he moves through the obstacle course. The scent of the treat will motivate your hamster to move even faster through the obstacle course. You will want to make sure that he does not eat any part of the obstacle course that could make him sick.

Problem: Article: While you may assume your home will be the place for your home church, this is not always the best idea. A home church should ideally be based in an area without any established churches nearby or where nearby churches are bigger and less intimate. Many people prefer smaller services, which is why they may seek out home churches. You should also pick an area that would be easy for potential members to reach, such as a home found in a central location in a city or town. Networking with other people with similar religious beliefs is important when starting a home church. This way, if your home is not appropriate for a home church, you can try finding someone else to volunteer. You want to make sure you're starting a home church for the right reasons. A home church should be a collaborative environment where likeminded people come together to worship. Home churches are usually started if there are few established churches in an area or if existing churches are not meeting the needs of many people. The following reasons are valid reasons to start a home church:  If existing churches have turned many people away, it may be necessary to start a home church. If churches in your area are very large, many people prefer the intimacy provided by a home church. If there are many people in your existing church who dislike the way doctrine is taught, you may find a home church can help. No one can start a home church without guidance. Existing spiritual leaders in your community are there to help. Reach out to spiritual leaders in your area whose beliefs are roughly in line with yours. Let them know you're planning on starting a home church and ask for support and suggestions.  Look for established believers in your area that are known for their religious services. For example, if you're starting a Christian home church, talk to someone who runs a Christian-based charity and ask them for guidance. If you do seek guidance within an existing church, make it clear you're not trying to challenge or upend that church. Explain that your motivations are simply to create a smaller, more intimate setting that is unlikely to replace an existing church. Home churches usually benefit from having a backbone of leaders. Just like elders or vestry in an established church, gather a group of three to four individuals to serve as leaders. Leaders can be family members, members of your existing church, or spiritual leaders in your community. Depending on the precise plan for your church, leaders can have different roles. For example, if you intend to have sermons, choose someone who is articulate and well-versed in your religion's doctrine to give sermons.
Summary:
Choose the right house for your church. Examine your motivations for starting a home church. Seek guidance from local spiritual leaders. Choose three or four main leaders.
