I've been on bed rest for a month now and I'm only 18weeks. My doctor says most likely it will be for the rest of my pregnancy. I have a 3yr old so its kindda hard being here all day. Any advice?

    My placenta is blocking my cervix and when i stand for so long I start too bleed heavily. I know its btter to be safe but I feel so bad for my son. He watches all the kids outside from the window. It just kilss me to see his face of sadness and boredom.

    Poor baby have you asked about maybe getting a lounge chair and sitting outside so your lil man can play some? Sounds like a really sticky situation hope you the best.

    I am high risk. I have been with all my pregnancies due to I was young (16) when I had my first, second I kept going into preterm labor from 4 months on, third I lost over 40lbs (I was 115 when I got pregnant), fourth I got H1N1 this one we found out right after my last one I got Lupus from blood transfusions when I was in the hospital with H1N1. I also have very low blood pressure which causes me to get dizzy, lightheaded, black out. My blood sugar gets down to 47 after I eat which is dangerous. So, yeah, high risk is NO fun. Doctors tell me bedrest is best, but I have 4 daughters, its kind of hard to stay put, ya know? I hope things get better for you!

    right now its not that nice to lounge outside otherwise i would. I live all the way on top so going up and down is hard for me. my bd tries to help but he starts early and comes home late.

    I was high risk with my son but it was just the last month. It was the worst month though! I had high blood pressure. I was 105lbs b4 i was preggo with him n gained alotta weight. I stopped dialating at 8cm and I stayed in labor for 2 1/2 days. Im ayoung mom too. i had him wheni was 20 n he was 9lbs. I can only imagine 4 girls. Its hard 2 be on bed rest with just 1. Good luck to you.

    I am high risk this pregnancy due to a preterm birth last June. I am 28 wks pregnant with our second son and currently in the hospital due to signs of preterm labor. I started having contractions at the end of my first trimester, but my ob just ignored what I had to say. I went in on Friday for a check up and they noticed my cervix is dilated. They don't think I will see my June 11th due date. They are hoping to at least get a minimum of another month out of me. I was 29 wks when I had my son last June. So it has been kinda scary for me too. You aren't alone, hun.

    Hope eveything goes well with u hun! I know how u feel. My doc ignored the fact that i told her i was having really sharp pains and pressure in my woman area. I had 2 threatened miscarrages and then after my 3 us they found out why i was in pain and bleeding.

    I am high risk due to threatened miscarriage twice, developing influenza, pneumonia and asthma, hyperemesis gravidarum and rapid weight loss. Im also experiencing severe headaches, dizziness, and cramping. I have had about 5 or 6 sonos so far and I am 17 weeks, 2 days. I have an appt today. Im hoping to get some help with eating. Because of the HG, I struggle to even drink liquids, and most days I cant eat more than a couple bites of food a couple times a day. So far ive lost about 30 pounds. Im starving! I want food! Haha.

    Yes, I am high-risk due to losing my first two pregnancies to miscarriage, a blood clotting disorder, PCOS, & hypothyroidism. I have really crappy insurance right now and am getting really crappy pre-natal care, so Imma stressed out momma at the moment. 25 weeks along, never made it this far before, & due July 2nd with a girl.

    I am SO sorry about your situation. Do you have family or good friends living nearby who can come over a few hours a day to help your son get some play time in?

    Best of luck & big hugs to all the mom's, but especially to us high-risk ladies. We need extra love & good vibes! :)
