Bed Rest
For all of you that don't know I have been sentenced to bed rest as of Monday, November 3rd. I am only allowed to go to the bathroom and take a shower. It wasn't bad the first few days because I wasn't feeling well but I am feeling better and want to be up and getting things done for the new baby. Jeff says I should be happy about spending everyday alone and in bed because I probably won't get this opportunity again for a long time. I do feel fortunate that this will only go on for a few weeks. I know some women have to be on bed rest for months which I can't imagine. I am doing my best to count my many blessings and appreciate all the wonderful family I have that are so willing to help out. My next doctor's appointment is on Thursday, November 13th and my doctor said he would schedule an inducement day then so watch for an update!

Sorry to hear that you are stuck in bed, we will be praying for you and the baby. If you might be induced next week that is not too long of a bed rest, so enjoy! I wish my doctor would put me on bed rest sometimes too!:) Keep us updated!
Les, Sorry to hear that um........... ya sorry! May I give you some book ideas? FABLEHAVEN a good read, any thing by Jodi Picoult, the Book of Mormon! Also if you have a laptop and can lay in bed and learn it get adobe photoshop and learn it. Its a great program and very useful! Take care of yourself
Oh Les! I feel for ya! I was on bed rest for 10 days- then in the hospital for 3 days before I had Jax and I felt fine (besides feeling VERY swollen)! It is so frustrating to just sit still huh?! Well I see someone already recommended a good book, but I have to say- read the Millenial Glory Series, by Wendie Edwards- LIFE CHANGING!
Well- hang in there- you are almost there!
See you soon... I am making that little guy a little gift!
OH man! That stinks! (Kind of). Enjoy it...but I bet you're going CRAZY! You're so used to going going going...now it's your turn to rest and be ready for a new baby!
Wow Les, I had no idea you were on bed rest. I guess I need to do a better job of checking everybody's blogs. Congrats on the new baby...It's good to hear you are both doing well. Can't wait to see baby Talon.
