W One of the less publicized projects of the Red Cross is a class for ex pectant mothers such as is held in Fort Worth. Such superstitions and fears as the false belief that babies are "marked" by pre-natal fright re quieted in the classes and other important questions are answered. "Doctor knows best" is the slogan of the Red Cross teachers but the nurses do try to give general answers to satisfy curi ous mothers-to-be. In general the limit for in creased weight is 25 to 30 pounds. More increase occurs during the last three months of pregnancy. Maternity clothing should be lightweight and attractive em phasizing comfort. Low shoes with stout broad heels give bet ter support, but if the expectant mother has been used to wear ing high heels, the shift should be gradual to avoid strain on leg muscles. The Red Cross says some ex ercise, rest and recreation are essential and suggests moderate exercise such as light house work and walking. Movies and television are good relaxation and rest. Eight hours sleep each night is desirable for the pregnant woman. Short work periods dur ing the day should be alternated with 10-minute rest periods to prevent overtiring. Some women fear that preg nancy will be nine months of Illness. But in most cases there are only minor complaints of nausea, heartburn, backache and shortness of breath. For nausea, eating dry crackers sometimes helps and rest will help the other ailments. In the event of pro longed symptoms the doctor should be consulted.
