I am also thrilled to have some of my bed rest restrictions lifted. I am now able to move around my house a little more now (still can only do the stairs once, maybe twice a day) and I was even able to get out to the mall this past Saturday to do some returns and exchanges with Brad. The only stipulation was that I had to ride around on a motorized scooter. It was pretty funny but it got me around quite comfortably I might add.
We are lucky to have such great friends and my family taking care of us. Winston is not lacking any walks and my family is wonderful bringing us meals almost every day and calling to check in on us. Even though Brad is home with me, he's working and has had to pick up all the household chores in my absence so we appreciate all the help we have been getting. My friends and SIL have been checking in on a regular basis offering their services to help out in getting me organized and offered to bring lunch and dinner. We feel very lucky to have such a great support system around us.
We are on the home stretch with 6 weeks until my official scheduled delivery date. I've been told by my doctor that if I were to go into labor anytime after 34 weeks they will not stop me. They are also pretty confident I'll make it pretty close to 38 weeks. So, I'll keep resting and accepting help from everyone and soak in the peacefullness and quiet of the house because I know things will never be the same again very soon!
