Well I guess no more cleaning the house for me

I've been so good at making DH do everything even when he complains and tells me that doing a bit of this or that isn't going to be a problem. WELL I guess I shouldn't have gotten so excited because I got to work this morning and started having bad shooting cramp pains. So I went to the bathroom and well you could guess from there...yep I'm bleeding again. Wahooo for me. NOT!

DH is out of town so I called him to give him a heads up and called the doc. The doc said if I have any bleeding at all I have to call immediately. Well doc just called back and said I have to be up off my feet more and if I don't I'll be on bedrest again.

I know I took it fairly easy over the weekend, although I did hold my friend's baby, Ethan, a lot this weekend. I know I'm instructed not to hold Kylie but Ethan is a lightweight compared to her. So I'm not sure that was really it. I do know that I was cleaning non-stop Thursday and was so exhausted Thursday night I thought I was literally going to die...so that was probably it...because I had some unusual cramping (not the normal stretching, growing, etc pains).

So I guess I should look at it as a good thing not to do any cleaning huh? I feel so sorry for DH because he is doing EVERYTHING and now he has to do everything PLUS get the entire main level of the house painted by the end of the year. The poor guy was up painting the foyer and hallway to the "kids wing" last night til almost midnight then had to turn around and drive to Chicago today.

Edit to say doc said I could come in to have a heartbeat check but I told her I'm sure everything is fine. She knows as well as I do that the baby is healthy as an ox. I just think she did that to make me feel more at ease. She is being so great this time around compared to the way she was with Kylie. I told her if it doesn't stop soon I may tomorrow.

~Roo'sMama~ replied: Aww I'm sorry! What a disappointment when you thought you were done bleeding. Too bad your DH has to do all the work but I'm sure he'll be fine once he meets your beautiful healthy baby!

MomToMany replied: I'm so sorry it started again. It sounds like you did have a busy weekend, so maybe that has something to do with it. Your DH is wonderful! Mine wouldn't do everything like that. He'd make the kids do it all.

Heh heh, I'd love it if I didn't have to do any cleaning! But seriously, I hope it stops soon for you.

coasterqueen replied:
Mollie if we had kids of age DH WOULD make them do more. He's asking me all the time..."at what age can Kylie start mowing the grass?".

coasterqueen replied:
Okay sorry about that I meant up and off my feet more. I edited my post.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Boy, Karen! Ryan is being an angel! I'm so sorry you are having to deal with all this bleeding. I can certainly understand how you would be worried to death. I'm glad your doctor is being sensitive to your needs this time around. That is wonderful! Hope it all stops soon.

Kaitlin'smom replied: sorry your having issues again, can you get someone to help a bit with the claening as a thanks to your great DH for picking up the slack?

coasterqueen replied:
Well I've begged and begged to get the cleaning lady back but he won't have it. And since he's in charge of the finances...I can't do it. He'll have to come to that conclusion himself I think...eventually he will .

Kaitlin'smom replied:
maybe you could remind him how helpfus she woudl be and that he would not have to do it all then?

kit_kats_mom replied: Booooo for bleeding.

Can you guys get a maid? Even if just to help with the biggies like vaccuming and bathrooms? DH sounds like he's doing a great job but he's gonna blow soon!

MomToMany replied:
LOL! OK, he's not quite the God I thought he was then .

A&A'smommy replied: ooh man that sucks!!! I'm sorry that you started that again, but at least your looking at is postivly NO MORE CLEANING that is one nice thing about it ((((BIG HUGS)))

toddzgurl replied: You really need to take it easy from now on that is very scary to think that anything you do could cause you to bleed. So you are right there should be no more house cleaning for you!! Well take it easy and good luck!
