Nesting but on bed rest
I have been in pre term labor since I was 19.5 weeks as my water partially ruptured. I've received weekly ultrasounds to measure my fluids and make sure the baby is growing on track. At 32 weeks I was back in the hospital 3 cm dialated and contracting every 2-3 minutes with the contractions lasting about 45 seconds to a minute. They released me from the hospital (with hesitation however we didn't have a choice as we have two toddlers at home and my fiancé couldn't get off work and my mother flew 2200 miles immediately to help with them) and I was told to continue bedrest and restrict myself to showering, using the bathroom and nothing else. I am now nesting like crazy. All I want to do is clean so our house is clean, organized and decluttered before the baby comes (of course that's easier said than done with two toddlers and a messy fiancé at home lol) I am literally itching to rearrange our kitchen cupboards, go through all the baby clothes again to make sure their clean and put away right, scrub my bathroom from top to bottom etc. I just need to make it 3 weeks and 4 days and I will be full term but I'm having to hold myself back from cleaning because I don't want to dialate anymore or have my water break. Ugh!!
