Oct. 6, 2005 - One week down, One week to go!
I have survived my first week on bed rest!!! Yippee!! 
Now to get through the next week and see what happens. Honestly, even on bed rest I do not think I will make it to her magic 37 week scheduled section. Too much pressure and baby is getting BIG! Last night dh commented that I looked MUCH bigger than I had before. Gee thanks, honey. 
But he's right, I am. This baby is growing by leaps and bounds while I lay here!!
So how does this compare to my other babies? Let's see...
#1 girl 39 weeks 6lbs. 14oz.
#2 boy 39 weeks 7lbs. 11oz.
#3 boy 38 weeks 7lbs. 6oz.
#4 boy 38 weeks 7lbs. 5oz.
#5 boy 38 weeks 8lbs
#6 boy 38 weeks 6lbs. 6oz
#7 boy ... TBA!!
Now I have very average sized babies, but I don't carry to 40 weeks either. Somehow I don't think this baby will fit that mold. But we shall see! Anyone want to guess how big baby will be??

preggo for the whole 40 weeks either. (5 babies, range from 37-39 weeks). Tee hee... I'll not complain! Ü
Bed rest is a bummer though. Done that too... not as long as you though. Most I've ever had was 2 weeks. The last one was the worst. Hard to have 4 kiddos, and hubby to care for -- from the couch. Praise the Lord for friends was all I can say!
Still praying for you!!

I SOOO understand the feeling huge thing. I went to our hs support group meeting yesterday at 39 weeks and got tons of LOOKS and a whole lot of "Wow you're still here???" I tend to be a 42 weeker, though, so I still have a bit of a haul.

I am a friend of Dawn P. and saw your blog listed on her friend list. Your blog title was so cute, I had to peek! I have had bed rest experience with all my pregnancies and empathize with the issues that arise. It is hard to be patient in affliction-especially when your little ones don't understand why you can't just pop up whenever they need something. I will pray for you and hope all goes well. Feel free to vent to me, if you like!
