My due date is October 21st and I am about 7 1/2 weeks along right now. We heard some good news at the appointment about the bedrest. The doctor told us that I should be able to finish out the school year and I should be able to go on a modified bedrest from week 20 until about week 24 depending on how things are going. Then, I would go on a strict bedrest until at least 36 weeks. He also said I could go on bedrest earlier but we won't know until we get there, but so far the plan is at 20 weeks. I see the specialist about getting a cerclage on March 19 and then a couple of weeks later I will get the cerclage. I go back to the doctor on April 4. I also got diagnosed yesterday morning with sleep apnea. I have a C-PAP machine to help me breathe and sleep at night. I've heard that sleep apnea could cause high blood pressure and especially during pregnancy, so it was important that we took care of this now so that it may not be an issue. They told me we caught it very early, so that should be good. Hopefully, I will find my self with more energy. I've included at picture of Blobby Young. We got to hear the heart beat and even heard it move a little. It was pretty amazing.

Hi Matt, Lina, and Ethan,

Well Lana is pregnant too, looks like Blobby Patel and Blobby Young will be close in age! lol Congrats. Thats good you might not need alot of bedrest, that will certainly be better for your muscles and blood circulation. See you soon I hope.
