I have been on bed rest for a littl eover a month now.. Once LO is here I will be SAHM. Well, I am already going crazy, I know once LO is here I will have alot to do and want sleep... But once I get a hang of things what do you ladies do to keep from going crazy? Stuff that doesnt need a lot of $$$.

Just looking for some ideas :)

    I don't get it- are you looking for things while you are on bedresT???

    Why don't you get a 'learn a language' CD and put it in your laptop and try learning. That is what i did when i was very sick once. :)

    A lot of ladies on here (including myself) are involved in playgroups. I belong to MOP's (Mother's of Preschoolers). I stared going when DS was a few months old. It was more for myself at that time than anything as it was great to out of the house and talk with other mom's =)

    Try - www.meetup.com

    But yeah, I have to agree with ya. LO will keep you busy ;)

    Definitely try to find a playgroup or two to join, the links the previous poster gave are great resources.  Also check out your local public library, they will have free storytime for your child's age group.  Once the baby is about 6 months you can join a mommy & baby swim class at your local rec center or YMCA.

    I didn't read the other responses, so some of these may be duplicated.

    I joined two moms groups and we go to the outings.  Also, I've become friendly with one of the moms that I met there and we've been getting together with our boys.  We also go to the park, run errands, play in the backyard, go swimming at my parents' house, etc.  I'm also signing him up for a music class that starts next month.  Check your local library or Barnes & Noble to see if they have story time.
