Question:

Difference between measured and predicted Head loss?

Hello, i need some help on this question, i did a lab where we measured the head loss due to pipe fittings, and compared it to predicated values from the book..the percent error was extremly large 90% range. Why is this the case? I understand lab errors can cause a 2-3% error but 90 is very large. My calculations are right to.

Answer:

The doctors are used to pregnant women coming in to get checked to see if their water broke. That's what they're there for, and know all about pregnant women peeing on themselves. Not everyone's pee smells strongly, especially if they're drinking a lot of water, and some discharges may be thinner than others and seem watery like amniotic fluid. When my water broke, I was lucky enough to be sitting on the toilet. I peed and thought I felt like I was still peeing after I was done. Luckily I realized what was going on- since lots of pregnant women have bladder control issues I could have easily went about my business and ignore it. I didn't have a big gush of fluid, but it was somewhat of a fast trickle. And mine didn't stop either, as soon as I stood up it kept dripping a bit longer. I didn't have to do the lie down to let it pool test, but I strongly recommend it if you're not sure. While I was getting things together around the house to go to the hospital there wasn't much dripping going on, but as I was laying on the exam table waiting for the Dr. to come in and test me with a strip, my husband kept making me laugh, and my amniotic fluid kept spurting out of me. Graphic, but everyone I tell that to has a good laugh at it. Good Luck!
If you're having REAL accidents then you're not wasting your money on diapers. Regardless of the reason for it, you shouldn't be ashamed of having to wear them or if you LIKE wearing them.
Quilts and comforters are in the same family. I'm thinking that you experienced sleeping under a wonderful, thick wool blanket. Some are better than others, but they certainly are exquisite as far as warmth goes. Comforters are usually pretty good at keeping us warm, but the best warmth you can get is from layers. If you have a sheet and a comforter on you, you'll be warmer with a sheet, another blanket, and then the comforter. I love the new fleece blankets. They're lightweight, but still nice and warm, but any extra layer will help. Add two more if you need to to stay warm.
when your water breaks it doenst have to gush. when is your next appt? they can test that liquid to see if it is amniotic fluid. It sounds to me like probably leakage. keep monitoringI would call in the morning as long as the liquid is clear (meaning no brown tinge) (a little pink tinge is okayit is called or known as bloody show) call to your doctors and ask them questions, however, by then, labor may have progressed! or not :) the joy of labor ,knowing, and not knowing! take it easy and try to relax. just monitor the down there.you may notice more changes if your body is in labor. My first child my water leaked and did not gush, Every labor is differnet, that may be why your getting all these different answers. best wishes.
