  • I am sorry babs. I did bedrest (not as long as you are) and it is not fun. I hope you can find some arts and crafts that will help. I found my laptop, books, and magazines help a lot as well. Remember what you are doing it for and that will help you get through it easier.

  • Like so many others have said - just keep focused on the end result.  Yes, bedrest is sooooooooooooooo boring, but it will be worth it in the end!  I would do it all over again (8 + weeks in the hospital) if I had to for my precious little girls.

  • I was on bed rest most of the summer last year, and I just lounged in the bedroom w/ the AC blasting.  I mostly kept crossword puzzle &, word search books on hand.  Have visitors come by to keep you company :)

  • It's worth it, it's worth it, it's worth it.  (Easy for me to say, but it's true!!)  I hope you weren't tromping around the arts and crafts store missy!  Take care - just nurture those babies and yourself.  You can do this!!!
    Wheee!

  • I have been thinking about you - hoping everything was okay - I am so sorry you have to be on bedrest - but it is all for a good cause and when those little girls arrive - at full term - it will all be worth it.  Hang in there.

  • I'm sorry, I was only on strict bedrest for one week and was going crazy.  It will be worth it though.  Just take care of yourself and the babies. 
  • I came on here looking for an update from you, but I wish it was better news. I'm sorry. :( I'm on bedrest for the duration as well. Not fun, but hopefully it will do the trick for us both.
