Bed Rest: 28 weeks

I will 28 weeks tomorrow and my doctor has placed me on bed rest until my little man is here. My blood pressure was extremely high and they held me over night for the second time this month to check my urine, to make sure it was not preeclampsia yet. My urine came back both times little to no protein in it, but I am still being put on bed rest.
He still needs to be in there for at least 8 weeks... This is going to be a hard 8 weeks considering I am currently taking six college classes and working full time. So I guess I am asking how everybody else dealt/would deal with something like this? I am NOT someone who can just sit still, but NEED to for the sake of baby Sebastian...

I had to for both of my daughters. And their health. The first time I watched alot of TV and read alot. The second I was on babygaga alot. Especially when I got put in the hospital

i was on bed rest w my first from 4 months on. I watched alot of tv and netflixs. I still did go out once in a while but didnt walk much. it's kinda tough but it was winter when i was on bed rest and i dont like the cold.

Ahh yes, TV will consume me   And a good book a week!
