Update on Bedrest

So last week I made my 2nd trip to the hospital with contractions. Not dialated or anything and is fine. But the DR said since all my tests came back ok he's letting me work a little longer, but doesn't think I should go back after the winter break (I'm a teacher). He said I'm too worn out and already looking like I'm at end...despite being 28 weeks. So it looks like I have a week and a half left of work!

Re: Update on Bedrest

Thank you! I'm a mix of excited (who wouldn't want time off work??) and stressed (since it means fewer paychecks). Bedrest ladies... Do you end up giving yourself panic attacks cuz you're just sitting around thinking about the baby coming? This is my fear...

Re: Update on Bedrest

No. I did not panic at all just waiting for him to come..... I will not lie though I am very type "A" and staying at home in general drove me nuts b/c I could not do anything. I was on very strict BR though and could not get up at all other than to use the bathroom.

In the end it was worth it of course, b/c my little guy was very healthy.

Re: Update on Bedrest

I do have time to think about a lot. And I do have times when I enter a bit of "panic" mode. But mostly, I am bored, and so ready for them to be here already!
