Day 5 of bed rest

Today marks Day 5 since I was admitted to the hospital for bed rest. My parents came down on Friday and left today. They came down to check on John and I and to take Tyson home with them. This was a huge help for John and myself. We know we won't have to worry about him being at home in a kennel all day while I'm sitting here with my mind roaming around. I have been moved...again. I am VERY ready for a more permanent home in the hospital. I don't mind being in the hospital but this is the third time I've been moved since I arrived. Apparently there are several other women here being monitored and on bed rest so all of the antepartum rooms are full, they had me in a temporary room and then a labor and delivery room and now I'm back in one of the tiny temporary rooms. They have quite a few women coming in to be induced tonight so they needed all of their labor and delivery rooms for those ladies. I'm trying to look at it this way...when I go in to labor I want a labor and delivery room for myself and not for someone on bed rest. However, it makes it very hard to stay positive and be comfortable when you are in a room as small as your bathroom at home with a tv that you can't reach and no remote and blinds that don't close all the way so the sun is shining in and making me hotter than I already was. These temporary rooms don't have showers, however, I was able to grab a quick shower in my previous room before I came over. Hearing Jack's little heartbeat on the monitor or feeling him kick makes it all worth it. No room in this hospital is that bad once I remember why I'm here...it's for the safety of Jack and myself! I know he needs to grow a little more but I won't be sad when this bed rest situation is over. Lots of love from my hospital bed!
