What to do when you are on bed rest
Bed rest is not as relaxing as it sounds. My almost 2 weeks bed rest is almost over! My gosh that has been the longest two weeks of my life. Okay some of you might be wondering what have I been really doing the last couple of weeks. Well you can read about it here – My Journey.
Anyway to fellow women who needs to be on a bedrest, here are some things you can do to keep your sanity:
1. Prepare a couple of paperback books to occupy your time.
2. Organize photo albums or other paperwork, which you should be able to do while lying down.
3. Do needlework, this is a great time to catch up on the projects you’ve been putting off for a long time
4. Plan some home make over ( maybe you need new patio furniture sets) this is a great time to window shop online.
5. Daydream about your baby. No matter how difficult bed rest is, remember that you’re doing the best thing for your growing baby. Keep a journal about your pregnancy or write notes that you can put in your baby’s scrapbook.
6. Find support, there are forums where women share their experiences and problems. Maybe you have something you want to know about, this is a good place for advices.
Take it easy!
