*I'm only posting one check-in for the weekend but feel free to check-in both days if you'd like*

How are you feeling today?

Any "plans" for the weekend?

QOTWeekend: How has your family dealt with you being on bedrest? Has it affected you relationship with you SO? If you have other children how are they taking it?

Open Topic: What's on your mind?

Today has been a really good day so far. I feel good.

Some really good friends of ours are coming in from out of town today and we're having a bunch of family come over to visit so the house will be full and that always (lol, usually) makes me happy:)

QOTWeekend: thankfully dh has a really great job so financially we're ok with me not being able to work. As far as our relationship is concerned I do feel a little distant from him, mostly because now in addition to working he's had to do everything around the house which doesn't leave much time for us to just be together.

Open Topic: Tuesday's the big day!! Our 3D u/s.... I'm so excited!! also a little nervous, I just want everything to be ok.

Feeling eh this weekend. I've had a couple of Braxton hicks- never more than one or two a day... But I was still very much hoping to not get started with those for a few more weeks.

No real plans but I did have three drop in visitors yesterday. My sister brought me fried pickles, and SIL/BIL showed up just to keep me company. Was nice to see other humans- I've got a long stretch before my next appointment outing.

No kids at home, just me and DH. Bed rest is still causing a little tension- I'm usually a very self sufficient SAHW and DH just isn't aware of all the things that need to be done and since he's never had to do it all by himself- things go wrong occasionally. And it's hard to remember that he's doing the best he can when I'm frustrated by not being able to do it myself. So I nag at him about that, and he responds by nagging at me about how my bed rest should be more strict (I do probably sit up too much) and hounding me about how many water jugs I've had to drink. And at the end we are both unhappy. 

But this too, will pass. We've dealt with worse and it'll be back to normal (plus baby!) by the summer. We will make it

My mind is on the nursery today for some reason. Not that I can do much about it, but I'm still enjoying thinking about it
