My daughter, Hannah, was born on 4/8/08. I am expecting twins, due on 12/15/09. I was put on bed rest today. Aye!

I feel for you. I have a 2 year old, and I just had twin boys. I found that if you don't think about the day-to-day activites helps. Otherwise you will get overwhelmed. You just do it. I would try and keep those babies in for as long as possible, I know that its can be hard and frustrating, but its worth it in the end. I had the twins at 35 wks, and still spent time in the NICU. I found that twin websites really helped. Plus if you have friends or family that are willing to help out, use them. Plus my item I can't live without is 2 boucey seats, they make live so much easier. Good Luck. If you have anymore questions, don't be afraid to ask, I am livng it too!

Try and think of as many things to do in/on the bed that you can do with your daughter. Movies, reading books, coloring, having a "picnic" with her on the bed. Simple things can do so much for you and for her. I hope you're feeling alright. It's a shame you had to go on bed rest so early on. I just don't know what I'd do if I had to go on bed rest, which was something I was worried about. I'm actually able to work almost up until I have our new little one.

Yeah we have lots of love and support around us. It is still very frightening to think about it.
