*Monday Bedrest Check-in*

Good (very early) morning!
Milestones?
How was your day/evening?
QOTD: out pregnancies have been far from "normal", but that doesn't mean we haven't enjoyed it (or at least parts)! What has been the best part of this pregnancy for you?
Also, anyone want to take over the daily Bedrest check in since I'm about outta here?

Re: *Monday Bedrest Check-in*
Qotd: I love feeling LO moving, finding out she is a she was also great. I also don't hate afternoon naps ;-)
My night was ok. I had some darkish red blood and a small clot come out this morning. I was on the monitor for quite a while. The blood went back to brown, then I went to the bathroom, and while changing the pad, I had more red blood come out. The nurse flushed it before the resident could see it, dummy, and it was more than this morning. Although the doc said what is in the pad now is dark again. I'm going to have to really limit how much I go to the bathroom today, and that means no shower, or even standing at the sink to wash up.
The MFM and the residents are talking about moving up the c-section from 37 weeks, but they haven't committed to anything yet, and they haven't told me when they would move it too. Unfortunately because I am on Lovonox I will most likely have to have general anesthesia.
I am only 34 weeks right now, but I'm not sure how much more I can handle.
@angel that's awesome you made it to 34 weeks couldn't they stop the lovenox for 24 hrs so you can still have a spinal?
My day and night was ok. Lots of cuddling with the fiancé and doggies all day and night and we ordered in so much yummy food!!!
Feeling her kicks has been the absolute highlight of this pregnancy and hearing her heart beat! The 4d ultrasound was also amazing, we could even see she has some hair and the cutest littlest fat rolls on her belly already. I'm so in love. And every "bad" preg thing has been worth it!!!!!

I just realized I forgot to answer the QOTD, haha. Feeling baby move has been so awesome, DD really didn't move that much so it's great to feel so much movement.
@angelchild24 I hope the docs get everything figured out soon. I hate waiting for answers!
I couldn't fall asleep last night, even with Tylenol pm. I think I finally went to bed around 3:30. We had the weirdest realization last night. I'm so uncomfortable and tired and I said "I just can't do this anymore." And my fiancé said "We only have 5 more weeks." HOLY CRAP! 5 more weeks seems like nothing!
QOTD: the best part of pregnancy has also been the worst. I think that with everything that has happened to us, from being told we were going to deliver at 21 weeks and lose her, to 7 weeks in the hospital, has made my fiancé and I closer as a couple. I know that going through all of this has made me realize that 3 am feelings aren't going to be so bad compared to having to talk to the nicu doctors about discontinuing life support, like we did at 25 weeks. I appreciate my daughter more and realize what a rock my fiancé is.
Last night @ 3am u got another upset stomach :-( suckssss I had to throw up for it to go away.. 30mins later was able to go back to sleep.
Qotd: I love feeling my daughter move. When she doesn't move I start to move my belly so I can feel her :-) not having a normal pregnancy has made me so much more attached to her...
I had this crazy, LONG, drawn out dream about making out and fooling around with a guy that looked like a buffer version of Tyson Ritter (YUM!). Seriously, it went on all night. I think I might be sex-deprived! Lol
Babies are doing good. Getting some really big movements now. Fun stuff!
I'd say that is one of my favorite parts of pregnancy, feeling the babies move. I love music and I'll press my phone to my belly so the twins can hear it. Dominic (Baby
QOTD: My favorite part has been knowing they are with me. Prior to having to do the hospital bedrest, I really loved just rubbing my belly and knowing they were there. Unfortunately, HBD has made me a little disconnected from them. Not sure if it is all the worry or not wanting to disturb them. I just realized this today so I am working through it.
I slept ok. My sleep schedule is off. I slept from 3am to 11am and woke up a lot due to baby boy kicking my cervix.
QOTD: My favorite part has been feeling him move.
Congratulations @ilovetolaugh !!
Congratulations on milestones!!
Nice to have a night free of contractions so I could get a bit of sleep.
Definitely feeling the baby move. Also setting up a nursery...never thought my day would come--even if I'm just having to watch him do the work since I can't!
I had a pretty great day. I had an appt this morning and it went ok. I have moved to 3 cm and 80% effaced but we are still hanging in there. I'm having headaches and seeing spots along with protein in my urine. So far my blood pressure is a little up for me but still in normal range. Doc is having me do a 24 hr catch just to be sure nothing is starting.
My favorite part of pregnancy is feeling the movement. I love knowing that he is healthy, happy and growing in there. I can't wait to see his little face.

Angel - that sounds like a rough night... Really hoping your doctors get it all figured out with you.
Grats to everyone else with milestones and keep hanging in.
I'm fine - just trying to catch up on sleep from the weekend - contractions have finally dropped the rest of the way off... Some headaches and nausea from the procardia, but definitely no big deal. I swear I'm never drinking, or throwing up, another ensure after this pregnancy for the remainder of my days.
