Bedrest...A week so far :(

This whole bedrest thing is no joke! I thought 'oh yeah it will be nice to know that I have to lay in a bed all day except to eat and use the restroom' But after a whole week of this, it is draining me and I feel like a bum! The only up side to it is I feel like I get more personal time with my baby boy and I feel him move all day throughout the day, and he won't come early like he was trying too. (: --Backround-- On Sunday night (Jan. 29th) I was getting up out of the bath and as I was getting dressed I felt pressure in my pelvic area and after that my back was KILLI NG me! So I called my doctor's office emergency hotline, which was the hospital. They told me to lay down for an hour and count how many times I had a contraction even though there was no pain affiliated. Well I had 5 in one hour wihtout pain, and decided it was time to go into labor and delivery to figure what was going on out. Welll we showed up and it turns out I was having contractions at 25 weeks pregnant which was not a good sign. They checked to see if I was dialating and I was not so that was good news. They ended up giving me the 4 pills every 15 minutes to help them to stop and it didn't help, so I got the shot and let me tell you! Those bad boys hurt, even though only for a split second. My doctor ended up sending me home on bedrest until my scheduled appointment Feb. 8th! --So you got the backround and here I am still waiting for the 8th to come around so I can hopefully get back to school and be able to do things again instead of just constantly laying here. But if I am not taken off that's fine because all that truly matters to me is the baby is completly healthy and in good state of health.
