Bed Rest! Shoot me please!

I have so much to post about and tons of good pics but as of right now and until this baby comes out of me I am on bed rest! You read it right a good month of bed rest. Since the Sunday after Christmas I have contractions that have put me in the hospital for the night and since then have not died down! I am on medicine to try to get them to stop but so far no luck. But even if they do stop I am still on bed rest until 37 weeks which is about the 10th of February. So if anyone has any sort of ideas for me to occupy my time with that would be great. I am not into scraptbooking or anything real crafty and I can on be on the computer for about 20 minutes so if it doesn't include anything like that I would love to hear for you! Or give me a call!! Can you hear the desperation! Advice would be great too! Anyways when I can get to posting pics, many will be provided! thanks for reading my whine

  1. Courtney, I was on bedrest with Kami for 3 months. I watched a lot of movies, (I should have read a lot of books), I did some book work type stuff for my dad, sorted pictures for my mom, wrote thank you notes, and... was really really bored. Of course, there is always talking on the phone. Just count your blessings it's only for a month. You can make it.

  2. No creative ideas. Only condolences. That bites, I'm sorry! Good luck!

  3. Sorry to hear about the dreaded bedrest! I know how aweful it can be. If you have access to a computer and don't like to scrapbook, how about making a video/slideshow for each of your kids with all of your pictures. That way you can burn as many copies as you'd like and also, they have every picture at their disposal later in life. (Also, then you can delete all the stored photos which are taking up room on your computer. I also use the bedrest time to make (color, cut out, laminate, and recut-out) FHE games and packets. You just have to be really creative with your time, or you are going to lose your mind. Glad it only 1 month! Good luck!

  4. I agree. Anything to keep your mind busy will help. Maybe some family history work? Just kidding. . . Hope all goes well. You are in our prayers.

  5. We'll remember to pray for you, because I would go insane too. I would love to say read tons, but you still have other children that will interrupt that too. We feel for you & can't wait until February!
