I went to the doctor on Wednesday and well as I suspected I was put on bed rest. Although it is not a strict bed rest. I can stand up take care of the kids, cook and that's about it.
However, I can't leave the house and I have to lay down most of the time, so it really feels more like a house arrest.
It is so wonderful to see how many people have volunteer to take care of the kids already. It's been an incredible blessing. Thank you all for your kindness.
And so as the time draws closer I have nothing else to do but just to be grateful of my situation. I have a Doctor that knows what he is doing and will help my baby get here strong and healthy.
I have two wonderful kids that love their mommy so much it is impossible to not see this sacrifice been worth all the pain.
Just yesterday I was laying on the couch and Julia says to Josh: mommy needs to relax, then i heard him run to his room and bring 2 of his favorite blankets. He put one om top of my legs and the other one on top of my belly, then he rubbed my head, gave me a kiss, gave my belly a kiss and said go to sleep mommy.
Then my husband has taken all the house chores upon himself. I feel so bad that he has to go to work and then has to do all this work at home, but it is such a relief to know that he supports me 100% and to know that he loves me so much. He never though of it twice before taking over the house work and for that I am so grateful.
I love my family and I know that with them by my side I can endure anything

Oh Gaby, I'm sorry that this has happened, but that story of Josh is so super cute! What a wonderful little boy and I've seem Julia's sweetness for myself. You are in good, small, sticky hands. Lol. I will seriously come and help when you need it. I can come cook some dinner or clean toliets or take the kids for a while so you can rest or have some time with Spencer. Love you and will be thinking and praying for you and the little guy.
I am so sorry Gaby bed rest is just the worst, especially when you still have over two months left. A few weeks is managable, ten weeks seems like such a long time. Sweet little Josh and Julia I bet they are taking such good care of their mommy. Let me know if I can help in anyway. We will say lots of prayers for you and the little guy, and Spencer you are so great to take over the household chores. I bet that is such a relief for Gaby, not having to worry about that as well.
