How long did you actually "rest" for after the procedure? I had mine on Wednesday and I'm petrified to do anything...I have a 4 year old and a 2.5 year old...so it's really hard to take it easy. My husband was home both Wed/Thu. Today is my first day on my own. TIA!
I didn't. I went to the mall after my amnio and walked around a bit, with doctor's permission. I was told not to lift heavy stuff, or to go workout, but that walking was fine. Oh, I did take advantage of dh's offer to make dinner and clean up that night, and I did not lift my 4 yo for about 12 hours, but it was no big deal.

I think everyone has different effects from the amnio. My doc said it was fine to do normal daily activities but just don't overdo it. I worked from home after my amnio.
