I'm doing my very best to behave and follow dr's orders but its nearly impossible for me not to cook and clean. I don't really have any friends or family nearby to help me out and my husband is in the military. He's not deployed right now but he works such long hours that it almost doesnt matter. His day starts at 6am and he gets home about 730 if he doesnt have mandatory workout time with his flight. He works usually 4 days a week but on his off-days he gets called in for training pretty regularly which means he's not really off work. rolleyes I'd starve if I actually waited for him to make all my food. He's been trying to take care of me like dr wants but its really hard for him plus housework isnt really his thing. He's capable but not really up to my nearly a**l-retentive cleaning standard. And since he hasnt been cleaning like I was, its getting away from him. For the last 2 nights I dreamt about cleaning lol. I feel like a burden even though he'd never say anything like that, so I try to help. But I really can't tell my dr that his orders are nearly impossible to follow because I don't want to get put on hospital bedrest. sweatdrop Eh... 34 weeks down, something like 6 to go. Can't wait til this is over! I plan on having at least one more eventually but I will definitely be waiting like 4-5 years.
sometimes here there u could try a next door neighbor or two to help with food at least so u ain't always doing the cooking, so u r doing drs order a bit more. without being so guilty when u don't follow at times. i feel a little guilty when others help but thats what there for when life gets u down.
Sounds like good advice. You could also reach out to people you know from a church or a group meeting that you usually attend. Maybe somebody you know will help you out.
