If nothing else, bed rest has given me plenty of time to obsess over knitting patterns! I did a lot of searching, but I finally found a baby blanket project that seems appropriate to my skills and which will also help me really learn to do cables. I had planned to do the Irish Hiking Scarf, but I didn't get around to it because I was really pretty bored of scarves after my first two, but today I found the The Irish Hiking Baby Blanket. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning, so if Dr. Lu gives me the clear to go off bed rest, I'll pick up some circular needles and my yarn tomorrow! If he doesn't, I'll make Carl go to the yarn store for me and present a list to the first employee who looks able to help him (he's a good husband and hasn't complained once about having to pretty much wait on me hand-and-foot since Monday).
If anyone has any recommendations for baby knitting patterns for a fairly new knitter, I'd be happy to hear them.
I also discovered that a po-boy is not easy to eat in bed. I don't recommend it.
The good news is that I haven't had any bleeding at all last night or today, so it looks like the bed rest really did help! I'm incredibly relieved. I do understand that this type of hemorrhage will have to be monitored throughout my pregnancy and may cause complications in the future, but now I feel like we might be able to get through them all right, while at first I was just so terrified that I was going to have a miscarriage at any moment.
