My partner and I recently got a new electric blanket. Occasionally, if we sleep with it on, we get this tingly sensation if we touch each other. For example, if I have my side switched on, and he touches me, he can feel it. If I turn it off, the sensation stops, then restarts if I turn it back on.
I googled it, and found many people getting the same thing, but no explanation on what causes it.
Any ideas?
(No, we’re not sleeping with it turned on anymore…)
The blanket has a short. Stop using it & return it.

Need some advice regarding blankets. I live in a cold climate and we turn down the furnace to 64 degrees at night to save energy. I can’t stand the weight of a bunch of heavy blankets on top of me. I am looking for a blanket that is warm but lightweight. Thanks.
I only like natural fabric near my body.
Try some cotton blankets.

Which would you like better for a baby blanket set with coordinating valances & crib sheet?
1. Little cowboy in red and navy
2. Sailboat in navy and light blue
3. Night time sky with clouds and moon in blue and tan
Are you offering me a gift?
If someone else needed these things I would recommend the night time sky. I goes well with either gender.

I want to hang a baby blanket on the wall in my toddlers room to pad it because he likes to sit on a pillow in the corner and read. Not only will this look cute but it will be softer for him to lean aginst in case he hits his head. How can I do this without damaging the blanket and in a baby safe way. That means there can be nothing he could pull off and choke on. Thanks for the help!
A cheap way would be to use the clamp style pants hangers and then hang the hook ends through loops attached to the walls.

Or you could use a quilt hanger. I don’t think the wire ones would be strong enough but there a number of other types that might be suitable.

im looking for one and i have no idea where to find one. i want to make a knot blanket, anyone know where i can find one?
Check the different sites on-line, make note of what is available and the price, including S&H.
Then try Hobby Lobby – I found Air Force (and other branches of the military) cotton there during this past summer.
Jo-Ann and Hancock fabric may also have this particular print.
Hobby Lobby is closed on Sundays.
Best wishes for a successful search.

It looks like a buch of circles sewen together, but you can still see through the holes. please help!
It sounds like a afghan made of "Granny Squares." You will have to find someone who will make you one & that shouldn’t be too hard to do.

How To Confidently Nurse Your Baby In Public
If you’re like me, sticking around the house is pretty nice when your baby is a newborn. You can sleep in, watch a little TV, eat when you’re hungry (just like your baby!) and wear whatever you want. For awhile, you can stay in your “own little world” and just enjoy your new baby.
Then, reality sets in. . . . you have some errands to run or your older kids have a soccer game you really want to see (for me, it was my 6th grade daughter who had a volleyball game when Ella was only five days old!).
Or, a party you go to with your family every year is coming up and you don’t want to miss it.
Whatever the reason, it’s time to head out with new baby and resume your normal activities.
For some moms, the first times out can be scary, but for me they were adventurous. Why? Well, first of all, it felt absolutely wonderful to be out in public, again, without all of my big clothes and extra weight.
Also, going out with Ella was a nice break in my everyday routine.
So, how can you conceal the fact you are breastfeeding?
For starters, you can use a baby sling, which can help hide the fact you are breastfeeding. I love my sling (Ella does too) and hardly go anywhere without it. A sling is quick & easy to use and quite comfortable. I also use it many times when I know it will be a hassle to push the stroller around a tight area.
Another way to nurse discreetly is to drape your shoulder & baby’s head with a light blanket or nursing cover. Many moms find it gives them some private space to get their babies started at the breast, then remove the covering once baby is nursing.
Two things to consider if you use a light blanket: this may actually “tell” more people what you are doing and, as your baby grows older, he may be able to pull the blanket off. But if using a blanket or nursing cover makes you more comfortable nursing in public, then do it.
Whether you use a nursing sling or light blanket, your clothing should also be considered for discreet nursing. It’s so much easier breastfeeding in public with good nursing clothing. I own several nursing tops, and two nursing dresses, which have concealed slits to allow Ella easy access. You can also simply dress in a few layers to give you some coverage. An unbuttoned blouse worn on top of a plain T-shirt is one of my favorite combos.
In the beginning, I found that using a sling and wearing the appropriate clothes seemed to give me the confidence I needed to go out with my breastfeeding baby.
However, no matter what you wear, you’ll find it’s not that big of deal to nurse your baby in public, especially once you become more experienced at it!
