help! bedrest so soon??? 25wks

christina

I am 25 weeks with a baby girl and I have been out of work for about 3 weeks already... on bedrest. ... today I went back to the doctor and she told me that because of the high risk nature of my pregnancy (severe migraines, vomiting, fainting, blood pressure and gestational diabetes issues, previous preterm delivery) she is highly recommending that I stay out of work on limited bedrest (no work, very light activity, frequent appts) until after my pregnancy..... anybody else going through this? anybody else have advice for how to stay sane? I am concerned that my anxiety will increase as the days go by and am worried about the added stress to my SO and kids (ages 9&10 and my SO 33 lol) although I'm trying to see the upside of having them all to myself this last summer before the new baby comes..... which is still difficult because I can't handle the heat ousltside for too long so it limits what we can do.... I love my kids and this baby girl that's cookin so much....
