I was put on moderate bedrest

[gratefulbambina]

Well looks like this guy has as much patience as his sister. Im already effaced at 50% & hes down facing my back. Im on moderate rest trying to last out at least 4 weeks, but I want to go to 36 weeks. I was put on bedrest with his sister at 32 weeks & she arrived at 35 weeks. Im allowed to be up for 15 mins & rest for 45 mins at at time.

Eek- November 14th puts you at 30+4, right? I don't know what to say except lots and lots of hugs. Here's hoping he decides that inside is a good place to be...

yep 30+4. Im going to be doing alot of talking to my cervix thru meditation & I think Im going to have my dh talk to my vagina :LOL

Hey, you are my due-date buddy! In theory anyway :o

Sorry to hear about your impatient baby. I hope your meditations work and he understands and stays in there.

Sorry to hear about this turn for you. Hope babe stays put and you can at least enjoy some of the resting.

[Awaken]

Heehee...I'm sure dh will enjoy that :)

Sorry to hear you're going to be on bedrest. Do you have anyone to help take care of your dd? That is my biggest concern if I had to be on br- I have no one to care for ds.

Maybe you could check out the Baby Stay IN cd (http://www.hypnobabies.com/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=33&osCsid=d66914a7483b21ea923313136ecc30b5) and that might help?

Luckily my daughter is very independent so I think we should be ok

Sorry! I was on it last pregnancy as well... Sidelines helped me out a lot. You can even get a bedrest buddy...

Here is their top ten list of things to do while on bedrest:

I'm not sure how applicable it is, but the list can't hurt.
