Morning Friends! I thought I'd start this since I'm on the half on bed rest half off bed rest train.

How was your night? Sleep well?

Milestones or updates?

QOTD: Which holiday are you most excited to celebrate with your LO?

36 and 3 today I had such horrible contractions for about 2 hours last night. They're getting worse and worse, hopefully this means things are getting moving for my girl's debut! We're supposed to go to a family end of the summer party today, but all I want to do is sleep!

QOTD: I'm most excited for Halloween. It's always been my favorite "holiday" and time of year. Infant costumes are always hilarious

Update: 30w 4d Finally slept well. Had a rough day yesterday. We started off with a great u/s - babies look great. But when they put me on monitors, I had a lot of contractions. I drank a lot of water and they gave me extra Procardia. The babies were extra active which made it hard for my uterus to calm down. Finally got everything under control after dinner. Hoping for an uneventful rest of my pregnancy.

QOTD: I love Christmas! The babies will be too small to do big family events, but I am looking forward to a small family event at our house. We usually go to my in laws, but I'm going to insist on having people over to our house so we don't have to carry all their gear everywhere and try to breastfeed in different environments.

Once again my sleeping is almost non-existent.. Didn't go to bed till 6am. It's 12pm and just woke up. 6hrs of sleep ill take it.

So yesterday started off like a regular day. DH went to work came home got dressed and left to see the Boston bs Yankee game. While he was gone my BFF from work came to see me it was surprised totally didn't know she was coming haven't seen her since June when I was working. She stood for about an hr because he 6yr old daughter wanted to go to the park. I just watched the clock waiting for the DH at 11 he calls me and says "oh the game is over the guys want to go to the movies" now I am pissed because he leaves at 5:30 am comes home showers to only leave again. I am not complaining but come on why do you get to enjoy yourself while I am bond to a bed and I didn't make my daughter alone. 2:30am he walks into the house i of course wide awake, we don't exchange any words he goes straight to sleep. Now here we are 12pm he just woke up got dressed and has the nerve to keep me on the cheek and say i will be back at 2pm. Seriously dude, my tears just fell down my cheek because it just isn't right. Where the fk are your priorities. I am 9wks stuck at home. I only get to smell fresh air when I have a drs appt or rushing to L&D and you can't take one for the team and stay home with me. I have set in my head I am no longer going to address this problem let this ass hole do what he wants I am so done. My main priority is keeping my daughter baking for a few more week let him come and go as he pleases!!!

Qotd: since she is expected to arrive in nov, thanksgiving would be amazing to celebrate with her.

Hi all, this is my first check in, as I was just put on bed rest Thursday.  I am 20w today with my fourth.  My previous pregnancy I had PTL and delivered just shy of 25 weeks.  My daughter only survived a few days after delivery.  I started having shortening Wednesday morning and by Wednesday night I had contractions 3 minutes apart.  They were able to get under control with bed rest and procardia.  I was okay for a couple days and landed back in L&D this afternoon.  Got a shot of Terb and they are subsiding, but not gone after 5 hours.  Anyone else dealing with PTL?  My small milestone is getting through my second contraction episode.  I really hope they go away!

I hope I get to spend NYE with this little one and not a holiday before that :-)

Kneenah- I know exactly how you feel. I've been on bedrest for 8 weeks now and am losing my mind. My husband works 6 days a week and I don't have any friends/family near, so I am pretty much going insane.

Update: I am 30 wks 1 day now. No appointments until next Friday.

QOTD: I am looking forward to Christmas. I am mostly looking forward to being able to walk, run, move, cook and even work

kneenah1231 I'm really sorry your hubby is being a jerk. Mine went through that phase, they just don't get how hard it is for us (they think they have it so hard)... I literally saw him one weekend for like 30min. I eventually just lost it on him and now he gets it. BUT you def have to meet him in the middle. I'm back on strict bed rest and told him I want him to have some time for himself each weekend but he must keep his phone on him and not be gone for more than a few hours (2-3) per day on the weekends. You have to compromise b/c staring at us while we lay on the couch is only going to make them resentful. I hope your hubby comes around....
