bed rest......... again

I am 35 weeks and last week the doc put me on bedrest. The last month or so I have been having contractions, nothing regular, but contractions. Mostly during the day while at work or when I tend to over do it. The doctor checked me a few weeks agao and there was no cervical change. He did put me on progesterone shots to slow contrax. Well last week I was checked and dilated to 2 and 75% effaced...... So bed rest for 3 weeks to keep baby in until 38 weeks. This of course happened when Craig was in Brazil for a week.... ugh.... It was very upsetting to me to come this far in my pregnancy and then at the end get put on bedrest. I was on bed rest with Landon for 2 months, but was fine with Pressley. It is also the last 2 weeks of school and having to miss that is heartbreaking. That was the hardest part for me :(

So here I lay... bored out of my mind. I am grading, writing thank you notes, nesting from afar (shopping online). I am still having contrax and they are painful now, but nothing regular. My kiddos are not sure what to think and have been extra sensitive lately. Now that Craig is back from Brazil, he has been a HUGE help. He has been working from home and has been watching me like a hawk. He told me yesterday, if I don't stay in bed he is calling doc and they will put me in hospital. So,in,bed,i,stay,
