Well I may be having a May baby

I went to the doctor today an my blood pressure was 148/105. My doctor has put me on bed rest. Im going to go crazy! I'm really worried. My doctor is trying to keep the baby in me 2-3 more weeks! He did say I will be having this little boy atleast a week early. How are you on bed rest dealing with and it and what is keeping you busy?

  • I've been on bedrest since 32 weeks for preterm labor (I'm now 35).  While the first week wasn't so bad, I am bored out of my mind now!  I've watched about everything on t.v. I can think of, read, shopped and browsed online. I know in a few weeks I'll be wanting some rest!  Take care!

  • I can't imagine! A few days of tv is fun but I'd be over that in a hurry. I hope your bp can be controlled through bedrest and lo keeps doing well. :)

  • I'm on bed rest for high blood pressure too. I'm going nuts. There isn't enough tv, internet, or books to keep from getting up. It's awful.

  • Do you have any interest in knitting/crocheting? I know that's what I would be doing if I was on bedrest.  LO would have like 10 blankets and hats

    I plan on sending my mother to get me some fabric and stuff this weekend so I can be making blankets or something! I've never been one to just sit at home I'm always on the go!

    I've been on bed rest for 6 weeks.  The first 3 were at home and I read a lot, researched day cares, organized my recipes and pictures, and watched tv. 

    After 3 weeks I was hospitalized and on bed rest here.  I would give anything to be back home and regret ever complaining about it.  It is so hard to sleep here and I am exhausted even though I am laying all day.  Since I've been at the hospital, I bought a Nook, which has helped to pass the time.  I also play Draw something and Words with friends on my iphone.

  • I have been on bedrest for 4 days and I'm losing it already..... I was being monitored at the hospital for pre-e but sent home because I didn't have any protein in my urine.  I'm going back to the doctor tomorrow and making a new plan for delivery, they are thinking either next Tuesday or Friday so I'm hoping for Tuesday!   My dd was June 12th and even though I knew I would go early, I wasn't planning on quite this early.  I'm reading a lot of books, posting a lot of posts on here, and blogging a lot.  Here's hoping all of our time goes quickly and knowing that it will all be over soon and be SOOO worth it! :)

  • Are you on bed rest for your blood pressure also?

  • I was just released from modified bedrest this week and that was hard enough.  It's just been very difficult with a toddler.  Hopefully your time goes by quickly!  I suggest reading.  I have started the Hunger Games trilogy and next I will start the 50 Shades books.
