I know that I have NO choice but to be on bedrest....But, my friends and family are having my baby shower without me next week-end nd I am just bummed out. :( I am moving into a new house this week-end and can't have it there because the hardwood floors are off limits etc. It just makes me sad because I feel so lonely right now. I do feel blessed that I am home and not in the hospital and that my little sweetie is still cooking!! I just want to have a pity party for myself right now...thanks for listening.

Awww... :bighug: I'm so sorry that you are feeling down. If I lived closer I would come over and party with you...

I'm so sorry! It's too bad something can't be worked out. Could they possibly postpone the shower until you can attend, or until it could be in your new home?

I'm sorry you're feeling down today! I can certainly imagine that it is difficult being on bedrest and missing your baby shower! I can't offer much but to say we're here for you! I really do hope your family and friends can work something out about your shower.

Kristen,

:bigarmhug:

That definitely stinks! We were suppose to have my shower two weekends from now, but we've decided to call it off since I can't be there, which stinks because there are lots of things we really need for Anna. We're doing one after she is born though... so maybe your friends and family could get together again with you and Jason!

I think the lady hosting it is calling the shower a "sip and see" and it will be like an afternoon tea type!

Sorry to hear about the shower...I am sure it is hard being on bedrest, but try to make the best of it. Before you know it your little one will be here in your arms.

Aw, girl I can't blame you. I can't even imagine how hard bed rest would be. I'd be horrible. But... it won't last forever! We're always here to chat!

Honey,
You deserve to throw yourself the biggest, saddest pity party ever. I think it should involve lots of ice cream and foot rubs. But hang in there. We're all here for you.

Sorry that you have to miss your baby shower. And ITA with others, you totally deserve to have a pity party. :( I would SO be the same way. Just think, not long now, time really does fly by.

I'm sorry you have to miss your shower. I hope you still get lots of visitors, though, while you are layed up. I was on hospital bedrest for a couple of weeks at the end of my first pregnancy and looked forward to ANY visitors at all.

I hope the time passes quickly for you! :bigarmhug:

I didn't get to go to my baby shower last time, either. It was in Rhode Island and I was in INdiana! I was so bummed. (They all gave me gift cards and then after the shower, mom mailed me all the cards).

If you need me and Molly to come cheer you up, just let us know!!! We wished you could have been there last night and we were definitely thinking of you!

Sorry you'll have to miss your shower. Mine had to be postponed due to bedrest too. It's now going to be after the baby is born, maybe someone will be willing to host it for after your lil' one makes his debut!

I am sorry Kristen. Your family won't postpone it until after the baby is born?

I think it's very cruel that they are having the shower without you! Couldn't they just have a smaller one and have it in your house/bedroom? That way you could be at the party but still resting in bed!

Sorry you feel so down, I'd feel the smae if I was stuck in bed :(

You are entitled to have bad days kristen!! You are being such a trooper! I am sure it is so hard to go from doing your normal things around the house and going shopping when you want to just laying in one spot and not being able to do those things. You are doing such a great job for your baby.
That does suck about your shower, but just think of all that fun stuff you will be able to go through when your hubby gets home with it!!
You are doing a great job...hang in there!!

That sucks. I'll come to your pity party with you!

Like others said, you should have a get together after the baby is born so that you two can be the center of attention then!

Thanks for coming to my pity party :wink: My shower is going on as planned...my DH is going to go in my place and have me on the phone...also, my friend is videotaping it for me. I think having it after the baby is born might be too much...plus I need the loot :? ---I know that is bad.

That's not bad! We dont really have baby showers over here but I wish we did! Its been a right pain in the arse trying to get everything on my own. My sister has been ace though, she's given me loads of clothes, toys accessories, helped me find a cot and a travel system. If I did have a baby shower, I think I would have to change it to a "thank you Tina" party! :lol:

(((Hugs))) I'd be bummed too. Do they have a web cam so you could watch it live?

Could you have three people come in and give you your gifts in 5 to 10 minute intervals? That way you are still involved in your shower.

BTW I just wanted to say sorry for not replying sooner...

I'm sorry about your baby shower...it would've been really nice if they could've come to surround you on your bed at least :)
