Going crazy

I just got released from a week in the hospital with the flu, kidney infection, and bronchitus (sp?) and they put me on bedrest because of how weak the sick time made me as well as problems with my heart. I'm almost 22 wks pregnant and going crazy. We just moved and just took in the eight year old little brother of my dh. I feel like I've got so much to do and can't... the meds they have me on leave me so stoned out some of the time I just lay and listen to music but mostly I'm anxious about how much I have left to do. Any ideas for keeping me busy in bed? Any thoughts on if I could cheat just a little bit and do some things around the house? Please help I feel like I"m going crazy...

Read some baby books, shop online =), catch up on your latest fave tv shows... and DON'T cheat! Your body needs time to heal so you don't wind up back in the hospital.

do lots and lots of baby registrys ! At every store you can think of. It will be fun looking at everything and comparing products for your baby. And do it whether your having a shower or not. People will want to get you stuff. When they ask you can go "i registered "here" while on bedrest to keep my mind busy if you wanna look on it."
