Quoting Tiffany (29 weeks):" I know it could be MUCH worse, I'm just sick of being so swollen that it hurts its also making my skin ... [snip!] ... his due date or until I'm 37 weeks. I'm sorry for venting cause I know it can be worse I just don't have anyone to talk to."

Have they told you how early they may deliver baby. Try cold clothes or icepacks to bring the swelling down. Dont stress out just think that before you know it your wee baby will be here and im sure a very healthy one at that. the more positive you stay the better (for blood pressure aswell as baby). Dont stress mama

No but they said they want to try and see me keep him in until 37 weeks my protien is 160 and its is supposed to be in the 50-100 in pregnant women or something like that. My doctor put it that way so as long as it stays under 300 they are keeping an eye on it and he's safe to stay in. I'm trying so hard to be positive I'm just so scared cause I don't want to lose him. I just am so terrified.

Find something to take your mind off it, Each week is one step closer to him coming its only 8 weeks away. You will be fine im sure, they are keeping a close eye on you and your baby is there number 1 priority. Even the rate of a baby born at 28 weeks is 95% survival. He will be fine, Read to him, sing to him etc

I can't do much I'm on bed rest. I can't walk around for long I can only get up to take showers or go potty. I can go to appointments. I love singing to him! Every time I sing you are my sunshine to him he kicks,   I wouldn't know what to read to him.

Do you knit or draw or something you can do while on bed rest. I read mine anything really from trashy magazine articles to kiddies books online. The more happy and relaxed he as well as mama the longer he will stay in.

Im in the same position only its my blood pressure that is bad, protein is fine for now.. Ive been on bed rest since 24 weeks and Im 32 now... Im so ready for this pregnancy to be done. Don't stress about loosing him, even if he was born tomorrow he still has a high rate of survival... he may be in the NICU but you would still have him. I''ve been doing this bed rest gig for two months now and I'm running out of things to do which is what got me posting on here! I don't really have much for suggestions, I've been reading a lot and watch netflix but it gets old quick. Good luck!!! <3
