AW: for the first time in a week

weezie825 · December 2011

I am wearing REAL clothes. I feel like a new person. YAY!

I have tried hard not too b*tch and moan too much to you guys. Bedrest went fine it was just boring. I am prepared to be bored if it will help LO cook longer. Tomorrow I get downgraded from bed rest to pelvic rest. I still have to take it easy, but at least I can get out of the house for a bit.

I have realized that I need to get a bigger stash of pantry and freezer staples. I think all we have left is half a bag of tater tots and a bag of frozen corn. We live in the middle of nowhere so peapod doesn't deliver here. I am actually looking forward to grocery shopping tomorrow. DH will do all the lifting!

DH hads been great. I am not allowed to pick Evie up, so getting her in and out of the car isn't an option. He's had to do all the daycare pick up and drop offs which means he is in the worst part of the beltway traffic twice a day instead of only once when we took turns. He also has to get her in and out of her crib and do her diaper changes. I did oversee a bath last night, but he still had to lift her in and out of the tub. We are slowly getting into a new groove. Evie doesn't like that I can't carry her around, but this would have happened once the baby came anyway. Maybe it is good big girl practice, right?

Thanks to everyone for your concern and offers of assitance. I really appreciate it!
