80 days....


after 80 days of bed rest, 20+ shots, and 34 wks of being pregnant , i was told by my doctor that it was "ok" to start moving around and to drive a car!! my interpretation of the diagnosis: off of bed rest (my husband's interpretation- not exactly the same, but he's conservative). so watch out if you are on the road....this girl is out of here!! first stop- going to all of my favorite junk shops and finding a bathing suit for this big belly!

    I was on "bed-rest" 17 plus years ago and now it sounds heavenly - but at the time, I had not a clue just how important that was. Who knew that I could paint, boss others around, write, file, all from my bed.
    Wishing you all the best belly!
