Just watching the world juniors with DH. I had another kidney stone on the other side last night, so recovering from that.
A couple that we are friends with are coming over to celebrate NYE with us, very low key.
This is my first time participating in this thread, hope that's ok! I was put on bed rest this past Wednesday.
The highlight of my Sunday will be a visit from my parents. My mom fixed dinner for DH and I (meatloaf, scalloped potatoes, salad, etc), so that's pretty awesome!
GTKY: No special plans! Kind of hoping I'm at the hospital delivering my baby boy, but other than that, I'll just be posted up in front of the TV/computer...

Watching football with my DH, enjoying seeing sunshine outside my window!!
We have no plans for NYE, happily. We will just spend time together taking it easy. DH and I are kind of homebodies anyway, so being on bed rest won't really change too much for us on that particular holiday.
I'm on bed rest due to a mild pre-eclampsia diagnosis. I have slightly elevated protein in my urine (my last 24-hour catch was 310), and my blood pressure has been high on a couple occasions (but not consistently). At my appt last Wednesday, after my BP reading (140/90), protein showing up on the dipstick (for the first time, even though they knew it was 310 in the the 24 hour for weeks), and a cervical check that showed me 3 cm dilated and 80% effaced, my doctor told me no more work, and bed/couch/chair rest. So here I am!
How about you?

Aw! At least you're pretty far along and you hopefully won't have to be on bed rest for too long. Have they talked about letting you go to 40 weeks or if they're going to want to induce early?
I was originally put on bed rest for mild pre-e at about 28w. Protein was 368 and BP was consistently showing high. After a few weeks of bed rest I got sent to the hospital and after a few days there my proteins went below pre-eclamptic levels (275) and so I got to go home. They've been going down ever since but my BP is still high so they're just saying I have gestational hypertension. I'm super done with being on bed rest. lol I'm exhausted strangely enough and ready for baby to arrive! I go to the doctor at least 3 times a week and periodically end up in L&D for high BP or protein dip being +1 or more. At most 3 1/2 more weeks!
Highlight of the day was going to our last family Christmas gathering for the year. I ate too much but did manage to stay seated for most of the time. I'm definitely not going anywhere tomorrow though. I'm glad we went but I'm paying for it

Re: Bed resters, what's the high point of your Sunday?
Oh gosh! I'm so sorry. Kidney stones are awful.
I hope you have a nice, low key NYE!

Welcome!
May I ask why you're on bed rest?
That's so sweet of your parents to fix dinner.

Highlight: Sister in law and her husband came to visit us today. it was great to see them!
GTKY: No plans for NYE. We are super glad to be ringing in 2013 and not having a 2012 baby! Getting to 2013 was a huge goal for us!
