of bedrest and I am bored out of my mind how do you that are on beddrest do it????

Re: day 1

It is truly awful, however feeling the baby kick and move around nonstop is a great reminder of why I am on bedrest. I know it can be so hard, i am on my 7th wk of bedrest-i have daily hm montoring w/nurse since i left the hospital. i used to see my drs 2x a wk now i only get to go out 1x per wk to my drs office and let me tell u how much i look forward to that big outing of the week.
I too had an emergency cerclage at 19 wks, my cervix went from a 3.7 to a 2.7 in a week. due to that and having had lost a baby girl last yr at 22.5 wks my high risk dr did the cerclage. in the few days that i waited to get the cerclage my cervix went down to a 1.6-the great news is that it is 6 wks past my cerclage and my cervix is measuring a 4.0-4.2 every week so far.
There are some days I feel like i am going out of my mind, but keep talking to ur baby and looking at her sono pixs, i find that helps.
I also have a huge amazing family and the greatest friends. Every day i have visitors that come while dh at wk. they bring meals and just help w/ laundry and keeping my home tidy day to day. They just sit an hang out w/ me for hours. I have to say these past few wks have flown by. I will hope and pray for u that u can just relax and try to make the best of the next few months. we dont have a choice. just keep thinking in a few months u will be holding ur little miracle baby, and i know u have suffered loss so that will mean the world to u!!!feel free to email me as i am ALWAYS around!!!
