Anna I am thinking that *no news is good news.* I'm looking forward to updates on your pregnancy as you go along. (Yep, the Pet Talk water is dangerous stuff! )

Pam, thank you for thinking of me.

Yep, no news is good news. I was in bed all last week until yesterday. I am feeling so blessed -- ladies from our Church have brought us hot meals every single night; and one lady is going to vaccuum for me on Fridays. How sweet is that?

It is sooo great to be out of bed, and out of the same four walls. I spent most of the time in the recliner in the living room, but it got so monotonous after a while. But that was OK, because I just wanted everything to heal properly.

No problems since last Thursday (I was warned of 4-5 more days of bleeding so it was expected) and for that I am so thankful. My belly is already getting bigger and waistbands are just so uncomfortable.

So things are going fine, and my next appt. is on August 14th. They are hoping to hire someone for my position at work by tomorrow, and that will be a relief. I can start training them, and then not feel obligated to work so many hours.

Thanks again for asking, and for the thoughts and prayers. I appreciate them soooooooo much!!!

Whew, I am so relieved to hear this update. I'll keep praying for you and the little one, the kitties will keep paws and whiskers crossed for good luck.

Anna, I'm sorry I didn't see this until now.
I had to be on bed rest briefly during my pregnancy with my daughter and it is for the best, you have to put you and your baby's health first.
That is great that you have had lots of people helping you and that you are doing better.
It's good that you will be able to cut back your work hours too so you won't be so stressed.
Are you over your morning sickness now?
Make sure you have Mark go out for a couple of midnight runs to the store for your favorite flavor of Ben & Jerry's ice cream.
Also make sure that you get out to eat at Fire and Ice at least once during your pregnancy.
I had dinner there about a week ago and the food is so good!
Sending gentle hugs your way.

I am so glad that all is well. My mom had bleeding in her 7th month when she was pregnant with me and the doctor made her go to bed until she was ready to deliver. Of course that was back in the Dark Ages. As you can see, I am fine.

It sounds like you belong to a super church. After Robyn had Jeremy, each night their dinner was delivered by a church member for, I think, a whole week! What a break for a new mom and, in your case, a mom-to-be who has been banished to her bed.

Thanks for updating us. I'm glad things are going better.

CONGRATULATIONS, ANNA!!! This is SO exciting for you and Mark! Yay!!!

I'm glad you're feeling better and all healed up. Just do whatever our PT Family tells you as well as your doctor.

I'm just so happy for you. I haven't been around PT for a while and miss you all so greatly. Its soooo wonderful to see news like this. Congrats!!

Love, Kelly

P.S. I'll keep you and the baby in my prayers.

So happy everything turned out to be ok!

Enjoy your bed rest! Get loads of good books and videos, and have a little PJ party every day!
