article: A midwife or doctor might recommend breaking your water manually if labor is slow. It is unlikely your water would be broken during the early stages of labor, as this increases the risk of infection. If things have slowed during active labor, however, breaking your water might get the process moving.  You will move your bottom to the edge of the hospital bed. Your doctor will examine you using a gloved hand. If necessary, she will use medical instruments to scratch the membrane around your baby until water flows out.  The procedure is not painful but can be uncomfortable. Contractions will become much stronger and quicker after your water is broken. A hormone drip can encourage your contractions to speed up and become more effective. This will push you from latent labor to active labor.  Pitocin, an artificial form of natural hormones released during labor, will be used in your hormone drip.  Your baby must be monitored more closely during this process as pitocin can cause very strong, very frequent contractions that can distress the baby.  An epidural may be administered before the hormone drip is put in place. You may need pain medication due to the increased intensity of labor, although plenty of women also give natural childbirth using pitocin. The cervix can be widened in one of two ways. This speeds up the process of labor and increase the rate of contractions.  Synthetic hormones that stimulate cervix dilation can be taken orally or placed inside the vagina.  The cervix can be dilated manually with balloon-shaped medical catheters, which is why this is sometimes referred to as the "balloon method."  As with most methods of medical induction, your baby's heart rate and vital signs will be monitored more closely afterwards to assure there are no complications. Inducing labor is usually done at the recommendation of your doctor or healthcare provider. While a wait-and-see approach is usually preferable, a doctor might want to induce labor for one of the following reasons. She will discuss her reasons with you to help you make the best choice.  If you're two weeks past your due date, the doctor might be concerned about the baby getting bigger. This makes delivery more difficult and increases the risk of complications.The risk of stillbirth also doubles when you are two weeks or more past the due date.  If your water breaks but contractions don't follow, your doctor may want to induce to minimize risk of infection for you and your baby.  Medical conditions, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, put you and your baby at risk for health issues. Your doctor might want to induce.  Any sort of infection is grounds to induce labor.  In rare cases, the placenta comes undone from the wall of the uterus. This can cause complications and if it occurs your doctor will probably want to induce.  Purely elective inductions should not be performed prior to 39 weeks gestation, as there can be complications to the baby.

Use an angled paintbrush to get to any hard-to-reach areas. Let the paint dry for 6 to 8 hours. Apply a coat of polycrylic if you want extra protection on your cabinets."
article: A bonding primer, preferably one that’s oil-based, creates a surface that the paint can stick to, and also prevents the paint from chipping easily. You can apply multiple coats with a foam roller if you feel like your cabinets are very glossy.  The primer might also say “for shiny surfaces” or “for glossy surfaces” on the package. If you notice the primer is bubbly or streaky when you apply it, that means it isn’t adhering to the laminate very well. Wipe off what you already applied if it's still wet, then use a different primer. If it's already dry, sand it off.  Have your primer tinted to match the color of your paint if you’re painting your cabinets a darker shade. This reduces the number of coats you’ll have to paint to cover the primer. Any paint store will be able to tint your primer for you. This is a good rule of thumb to follow if you aren’t sure how long to let your primer dry. However, the can of primer should have the dry time for that specific type on the packaging. For example, some primers dry in as little as 30 minutes!  Open a few windows or use a fan to diffuse the fumes from the primer. There’s also fast-drying primer that you can buy at a paint store or hardware store. Check that it’s compatible with whatever paint you’re using first. Stir your paint and pour it into a paint tray so you can saturate the roller easily. Then, instead of 1 thick coat, roll on even, thinner coats. Make sure each coat is dry before you start painting the next one or you’ll end up pulling off the previous coat.  Cover the entire visible surface of the cabinets, including the doors, sides, top, and bottom. You can use a paintbrush instead of a roller but it will be easier to see brushstrokes and will take much longer. It should take each coat about 4 hours to dry enough for you to add a new coat. Sand in between each coat with fine, 150 to 220 grit sandpaper if you notice any bumps or bubbles. While rollers are easy and practical for flat surfaces like the sides and doors of the cabinet, you’ll need a smaller paintbrush, preferably with an angled tip, to coat the edges or borders. Paint with long, steady strokes to avoid visible brushstrokes.  A small watercolor brush will work as a substitute for the angled paintbrush if you don’t have one. It's best to do this when you paint your final coat. You don't need to let the final coat dry before you start touching up. Check your paint can to find the exact dry time for your brand and type. You’ll know when the paint is dry when it no longer feels tacky to the touch. If you completely removed the cabinet doors, you may want to wait longer than the recommended dry time, so you don’t nick the paint. Leave them to sit overnight to be safe. While not necessary, a layer of sealant like polycrylic will make your paint job last longer and prevent chips. Brush it on after the paint has dried, then let the sealant dry completely prior to using your cabinets.  You can also use polyurethane, furniture wax, or any other paint sealant. Sealants come in different finishes, just like paint. So if you choose semi-gloss, for example, your cabinets will end up having a slight sheen to them. Avoid an eggshell or matte finish that will show fingerprints easily. Polycrylic or polyurethane typically take about 24 hours to fully dry.  Attach the cabinet doors back in their original spot and clean up any drop cloths, protective paper, or painter's tape that you used.

In order to be more confident, you will have to address some of your negative thoughts and beliefs. Keep a journal handy so that you can write down any negative thoughts and beliefs that enter your head throughout the day. Then, look over what you have written and try to determine where the thought or belief is coming from. What situations or people might be causing you to have these types of thoughts and beliefs? Many people have triggers that affect their confidence in negative ways. Try to identify the situations and places that seem to have a negative effect on how you feel about yourself. Being aware of these situations may help you to better address the way that they make you feel. For example, you may notice your confidence takes a blow when you go to the gym. Try to think about what it is about this situation that makes you self-conscious and make adjustments to help improve your self-confidence. Would you feel better if you wore different clothes? Used a different machine? Or went to the gym during a time when it is less crowded? Criticism from a friend or family member can also have a negative effect on your confidence. If you think that a friend or family member may be affecting your ability to be confident, you will need to find a way to deal with that person. Exercising, eating well, and getting plenty of rest can all have an impact on how you feel about yourself. If you do not take good care of yourself, your mind may be getting the idea that you do not value yourself. Send positive signals to your mind by taking care of your physical needs and staying healthy. Having a pleasing environment can help to make people feel more confident. If your home is not clean and inviting, it may be affecting the way that you feel about yourself. Do your best to keep your home (or at least your room) clean and inviting. Place meaningful objects around to help make it feel special and inviting.
