Saturday Morning - Lower Liquids High Hopes

Turns out we did meet our on call Doctor and she was super nice. We also have meet our 7th nurse (we have yet to have the same one twice), but luckily they have all been so nice and caring for us.

The on call doctor did go over a few things with us specifically regarding Bianca's care while on bed rest. So this case is a little different to write about as we are worried about the safety of the babies and their well being, and at the same time, I am worried about Bianca and her being on bed rest for so long. I have never been on complete bed rest before so I am not even sure what that is like, but I can only imagine it gets old.

So Bianca got her fluids lowered which I am taking as a great sign. She is eating solid food and able to handle most everything, but we are pushing her to stay hydrated and drink as much water as possible. We are so hopeful now that anything can happen, so since we can't directly take care of the kiddos we take care of the mom :-)

Some things I have learned from Bianca while she is on bed rest:

  • Changing sheets when a person is on bed rest - HARD
  • Using the restroom when a person is on bed rest - NOT FUN
  • Exercising while on bed rest - NOT SO EASY
  • Showering or bathing on bed rest - A SPONGE IS NOT A SHOWER BUT IT HELPS
  • Getting anything you want to eat, by just pouting your lips - A BREEZE
