35 Weeks - 5 more weeks to go!

Wow. Where to begin. In all honesty, I probably should have started this blog when I first found out I was pregnant, but I too lazy/tired/sick to even begin to think about writing a blog. Pregnancy is a joyous thing, but it can take a toll on a woman's body. Women are great, aren't they?

Well, I'm now able to write this blog because all I do is lie around all day. I've been diagnosed with pre-eclampsia, a form of high blood pressure during pregnancy, so the doctor prescribed bed rest. I can only get up to use the bathroom, shower, and eat. Honestly, you would think that being prescribed rest is a good thing, but I have been very bored. I've been trying to think of creative things I could do while still in bed, and here's a list I've come up with:

• Lots and lots of crafting... crocheting, scrapbooking, sketching
• Reading... borrow books from the public library so that it's free :-)
• Catching up on sleep. Believe it or not, when you're pregnant, it's difficult to sleep.
• Thank the heavens for the Winter Olympics on tv.

That's pretty much it. I'll have to think of more to do for the next month and a half! :-/
