{Day 35} Nesting and Bed Rest


Nesting and Bed Rest are two words that do not go together too well. In the past couple weeks we had an organizer come over for the kids rooms to ease the stress of another child moving into one room or the other. I thought this would really help the nesting issue... not so much. Between that and spending WAY too much time on pinterest all I want to do is organize more! I am resisting as much as I possibly can but Preston gets nervous the more he sees me doing, only because he knows the baby will be here just that much sooner!

Doctor Update:
  • Dilated to 3cm
  • 50% effaced
  • On a modified bed rest which means I get an hour a day to be up and semi active.
  • Still on medication for contractions until 11/23 - after that she said the benefits do not outweigh the risk and of course Preston asked me what that meant but I didn't ask :P
  • I asked my doc what the % of me going to 40 weeks was and she laughed. So... no chance.
  • She would really like to see me get to 37 weeks but she is not sure that is doable.
  • I have had a lot of cramping and contractions are still coming 3-4 times an hour.
Once again I want to thank EVERYONE that has been SOOOO helpful!

Preston's Grandpa woke up and is moved from the ICU to a regular patient room. Keep praying for his recovery. This is all really a miracle. God is good.

By this time next week I will be OFF BED REST (or will have a baby!)

{Countdown} 5 days 17 hours and 26 minutes
