Hoping resting during Spring Break keeps me off bedrest!

I had my 30 week appointment today. I've been having dizzy spells, nausea, headaches and BP was elevated to borderline high today (its been running extremely low). Add to that cramping starting last night and that EVERY time I walk more than 5 steps today my belly tightens my doc says "How about we put you on bedrest, ok." I immediately frowned and growled. Yes I know, I did it... I growled at my doctor. Lol! I'm ashamed actually at that childish gesture! She smiles and says "Do you have Spring Break coming up?" To which the answer is YES! next week. So now I'm on bedrest over spring break and we'll see how I'm doing at my next appointment in 2 weeks.

I honestly think I've just overdone it this week. Open House (an 11 hour day) on Tuesday, and hour and a half school bus trip yesterday and not sleeping well maybe... It's just too early to go on bedrest! I'm not ready... My classroom is not ready...

Take it easy ladies!

    We have Spring Break next week too. I'd be tickled if doc took me out of work but I want to make it to April at least. It's been a rough year.

    I've got 3 weeks until Spring break and I'm hoping I make it till then! My contractions are becoming more frequent and I has PTL with DS1.

    Good luck. Bed rest sounds tough. Now would be a great time to get a Netflix subscription!

    FX that resting over Spring Break helps.  On modified bed rest (don't have to be laying down all the time, just resting) and it sucks.  Stock up on some good books and Hulu is free, so you should be able to find some good tv and movies to watch on there. :)
