For homeowners who have steep slopes in their lawn, you may wish to calculate this slope for a number of reasons. For anyone planning to purchase a robot lawn mower, it is important to ensure that the model you have chosen will be able to handle the steepest slope of your lawn. The slope performance of robot lawn mowers varies significantly. Models available to buy today can handle slopes between 15% and 45% (8.5 degrees to 24 degrees).

What we refer to as Vitamin K is an important group of chemicals which help our blood to clot. There are several different types of Vitamin K and these different types all have different effects on the body. The only effect that is being considered when Vitamin K is offered to your baby is its role in reducing the chance of complications from excessive bleeding known as Vitamin K Deficiency Bleeding (VKDB). VKDB was previously known as Haemorrhagic Disease of the Newborn (HDN) and the two names refer to the same condition. VKDB is very rare but it can be very serious, which is why the parents of all babies in the UK are offered an injection of Vitamin K for their baby, just after birth, even though almost all of those babies will not benefit from it. If parents decline the injection they should be offered an oral dose given several times over a few weeks.

“I had an appointment with a consultant last week and was given a date for induction, although I wasn’t really asked whether I wanted it and it was all very fast. There’s no medical reason for inducing me, it’s just that I’ll be 41 weeks pregnant on that date. When I got home and thought about it and read more, I decided I wanted to cancel it. But how do I do that?”

There may be physical problems after having a baby.They can be related to pregnancy or birth, or the things you do while caring for young children, such as lifting and bending.For some problems, you can do a lot to help yourself. For example, if you have a leaky bladder (incontinence) or a heavy feeling between your vagina and anus, you may need to strengthen the muscles around your bladder by doing pelvic floor exercises.Also, if you have back pain, you may need to learn how to look after your back and do some exercises to strengthen it.If a physical problem is bothering you, ask a GP or health visitor for help at any time.
