Evening in L&D

TimeRacer

So my LO gave me one heck of a scare last night. She didn't move more than twice over several hours when she's usually extremely active, so I freaked out and went into L&D to get checked out.

Turns out the little brat is just fine, but I am a walking, talking stressed-out disaster. (yeah, I kinda already knew that )

Anyhow, I am now on Dr.'s orders to relax as much as possible. Do whatever I want within reason so long as I keep my stress levels down.

So..I need suggestions. My usual relaxation methods only work so much thanks to the pelvic pain. 

Other than hot baths, what have you ladies been doing to stay relaxed throughout the delightful experience that is the end of pregnancy?

I have been just going into the nursery closing the door and sitting in the rocker for a few minutes and closing my eyes and practicing my breathing. We have 2 other kids and when my DH is home this is when I do it to get some alone time.
