20 weeks 1 day

First I have to announce that we are having a BOY!!! DH and I knew since I concieved it was a boyy but everyone was convinced it was a girl..lol..mommy and daddy know best! I cant believe Im half-way through this pregnancy. It definitly has not been a cakewalk! Im still on bedrest, which is driving me insane. I want to be able to work, do housework, go for walks, go to festivals, basically do anything! The doctor says bedrest until at least 24 weeks, and then well revisit the issue at that time. Honestly I believe it will be bedrest for the rest of the pregnancy. Im also having some contractions which we believe are just braxton hicks, and some cramping. Being on bedrest gives me too much time to worry about everything, I get anxious that were so close to age of viability but not there for another 4 weeks. I dont know what I would do with myself if I delieved and we were so close to making it. I worry about every little pain and ache and sometimes its so hard to console me. The only thing that reassures me a little is feeling my LO jive around in my belly.

On a side note I have to schedule my NCLEX-RN testing date and have no idea for when. I cant do it before 24 weeks since my doc wants my laying and not much sitting. Then what if I schedule it and then go into labor and deliever early. Im also nervous about failing, when the hell would I retake it since Ill have a newborn. Blah
