So sick of bedrest...

I have been in this damn bed since 8 WEEKS!!

I'm begining to think I won't get out of bed until she is here.

vent over.

Oh I hear you! But, you make me realize I shouldn't complain because I have less time left. I am almost 34 weeks so it might only be a few more weeks of bedrest.

Best of luck to you and hang in there!

the only thing that keeps me going is knowing that it's only a few weeks...i don't know how you do it for a loooong time like that. ?major kudos to you!

I seriously can not imagine how hard that must be! I've been on since about 24 weeks now myself, but thats no where near as long as you. I hope you are able to at least switch to a more modified bedrest in the near future! Hang in there I promise it is all worth it, I'm a 2x bedrester!

I'm pretty much going insane!

I wish I learned how to crochet earlier on bedrest...then I could have made everyone on here a baby blanket!!

I'll switch places with you. I'm so tired, it's torture to drag myself into work every morning. I would gladly take bedrest right now.....

I hear ya! I have been on bedrest for 9 weeks...and will be until I deliver. I keep telling myself it could be way worse, like being on hospital bedrest! Bedrest will end and it will be worth it in the end!!

I have been reading the Twilight series, I am on book 3. Watching movies, surfing the internet, registering online, starting a blog, and watching tv. The good thing is you dont have to be stuck on bedrest forever, it will end even tho somedays it seems like forever! Big Smile

I wish! My husband keeps telling me this too...but when it gets to the point where you CAN'T stand longer then a few minutes because your body is too weak, and your saving account is slowly draining..you'll want to be back in your shoes.

I just wish there was a happy medium.

I read the Twilight Series last year. Maybe I should re-read

I have the "Marked" series. I haven't started them yet. Most of the day I'm on the computer, doing crosswords, crocheting, doing a hook rug, writing in my baby journal, and watching TV. I feel like my brain is melting though, I need some more mental stimulation!

I totally hear ya and as crappy as it is to say, I love seeing someone due the same day as I that is on bedrest. I too feel as though I have nothing to contribute and my brain is melting....TV truly does turn the brain into mush! And as far as a bank acct....mine was drained before my bedrest due to my DH unemployed status....he starts a 6 month job in 2 weeks....thank god.....I thought we would have to hit the 401K!! We will get through it and will be thankful for what we have in the long run....at least thats what i tell myself everyday!

Oh I hear you too....just hitting my 8th week of bedrest this week (although I'm so sorry that you have been on for longer). I completely feel like my brain is just. dead. D.E.A.D. I keep meaning to learn to crochet - maybe then I would feel like I was doing something productive. I'm beyond sick of tv. Sigh. At least we are all in this for a good cause

I've been on bedrest for 12 weeks!!!

At 8 weeks I was still kindda ok.

I know it sucks and you feel like you are going to get bedsores and loose your mind and leg muscles too. Just know you are doing a great job and one day it will all have been so worth it! Hang in there!
