Pregnant after 40

And I am slowly going nuts, I first tried to read as I loved reading but haven't had time in the past to do it well it appears as I have aged I now have the attention span of a two year old as I cannot seem to concentrate any longer than 5 mins. I have seriously read maybe 2 pages in a week!!! urghh

I have managed to watch all my soaps and get caught up in the story lines!! I tried to online crosswords and have come to the realization that I am not as smart as I thought I was for I have yet to complete a single puzzle (even on the easy level). In the evenings my daughter and I play barbies and watch our favorite movie (sweet home alabama) this time of the day is my favorite,

My SIL has offered to come over during the day to walk my Dog (who is so sad and feel neglected since I can no longer walk him) and help with the day to day chores while I am grateful for the help I also dread this as she has a very serious nature,,,(LUCKY ME)

so now I have decided to gather all my loose photos (basically 20 years worth) and do some scrap booking, several years ago I took evening courses about scape booking and now I have the time to finally get all of my children's baby/toddlers/school age pictures put into albums . With the hopes of finally giving each of my adult children theses albums.

I will see how week 2 goes..wish me Luck ;)

Thank you Joan for your sympathy I appreciate it, During the last week I have been "lurking"on the boards it helps pass the time. I wanted to start a discussion but unfortunately I have nothing of interest to start one with, right now (knock on wood) my life is pretty boring the most interesting thing going on other than the twins is that I drink so much water that my urine is clear..LOL

Yes the scrap booking interest does look promising, today my loving DH is going to bring up the long table from our basement (we use it when everyone comes over for dinner (as my dinning room table only sits 8) and set it up by my bed then he is going to bring up all the scarp booking material that I had bought years ago (he said I would never do it that it was a lot of money to waste on items to remain unopened,,,ha I showed him) then I will start the task of organizing the photos. Yes this shold keep me busy!!! ( fingers Crossed)

I will post weekly updates unless something exciting happens !!!! LOL

Take care
Carly

  

   

Thank you Jodi for the kind words, You are right if it wasn't for my laptop I think I would be totally stir crazy its my link to "the outside world" LOL

I am allowed to be on my back but I have to be propped up, My doctor would like me to rest/sleep on my side knees bent, I normally sleep on my left side anyway so this is do able for me. He threw me on bed rest because my cervix shortened to 2.3 and my blood pressure has been on the high side also I am a AMA mom (love that term) . I have my 24 week appointment this Thursday so hopefully if there is no change in my cervix he might modify my bed rest . (finger crossed). Then at least I would be allowed to move around. Still its a small price to pay and it isn't permanent in the end I gain so much more two beautiful boys so I try not to complain too much.

Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you this week I hope the amnio results are what you want and your little man is alright.

Take Care
Carly
