Bloggin' On Bedrest

Some people dream of a day spent doing nothing but lounging in bed, resting, watching TV, reading, being waited on, etc. If you are one of those people I would seriously warn you to be careful what you wish for! We returned to the fertility clinic Friday morning and had three, YES THAT'S RIGHT I SAID THREE, embryos tranferred into my uterus. The doctor said we have "beautiful embryos" and he had every reason to believe this will work for us. To increase our chances of the embryos implanting in the uterine lining, I am on bedrest strictly until tonight and then modified until Monday. So for now that means getting up only to go to the bathroom. I never thought of a trip to the bathroom as a treat before but my mind has sure been changed in the past 27 hours! Tonight, specifically in 6 1/2 hours, I will be allowed to get out of bed to have dinner - yippee! Tomorrow I will be able to get up for a shower and for meals and then Monday slowly increase activities. I am off work until THursday though so I plan to take it pretty easy. Ironically, this weekend also is a family getaway that my parents gave us as a Christmas gift so my parents and sibling, nieces and nephew have all been around to break up my boredom. All in all, I am surviving with minimal insanity or discomfort and am focusing on giving these embryos their best chance at becoming our family.

Pregnant, not pregnant, or somewhere in between, my God is good all the time!
