Notes from Bedrest: Epilogue -- Alexander
Notes from Bedrest: Light at the End ...
I am approaching the end of my pregnancy, and my little bun in the oven is growing and healthy. I am looking forward to getting out of this godforsaken bed. I am looking forward to picking up my daughter, hugging my husband while standing up, and feeling real sunlight (not to mention coloring my roots).
Notes from Bedrest: Around the Bed in 80 Days ....
Wasn't that a movie? The movie of my LIFE, maybe. Eighty days. Eight-oh. In bed. Eleven-and-a-half weeks lying down. Seriously. But the good news is that when I got my ultrasound, I saw a big blob on a tiny portable machine. Beautiful. The little man is about 3 3/4 lbs.

Incompetence: Hour 36
I've been on my back for 36 hours now -- most of that with my head lower than my feet.
Bad News: I Was Just Diagnosed with an Incompetent Cervix
I was just diagnosed with an incompetent cervix and admitted to Cedars-Sinai. It will be touch and go for the next few days and then weeks. I'm 19 weeks pregnant. It's truly a nightmare ... there's a chance I'll lose the baby.
