Yesterday I got quite a scare. My body told me in not so many words that something was quite wrong.
I was at the doctor's this morning and was assured I am okay but need to slow down a bit.
I was going full throttle much too soon. It's so hard for me to take it easy.
My doctor completely understood once Keith told him I was Mennonite. He said...'Aha! I married a Mennonite woman too. They are from good stock...hard workers.'
So I am going to attempt to tone it down this week. I think I'd better hit the library and stock up on some good reads!

Uh-oh...I would tell you I told you so but I am not that mean:)
I'm the same way and think I told you how I got reprimanded on the street by complete strangers. Hope you are able to find peace while taking it easy, and I hope you feel better soon. :)
ah . . yes .. been there done that .. .
I have never said this before .. but I don't want you be able to read this comment unless you have a notebook computer and someone is pressing the buttons for you as yu lay horizontal . .
Please take care . . . it's okay to rest ..
Feel better soon .. and give the wee one a kiss from me.
I won't tell you 'i told you so' either!
Lesson learned...put your feet up sister!
take care of yourself Rachel!
Oh dear. Commanded to take it easy and rest. Not always the easiest command to obey is it? Although I'd love to give it a whirl myself. :)
Glad you are listening to your doc! Rest up, you won't be able to milk the excess help around the house for too long ;)
Take advantage of this time... enjoy some tlc & food tv. Maybe when you are past this stage you will have a bunch of new recipes to try :)
Oh no...what did you do? Incision is OK I hope!
so one would think that if you have to "slow down" that said "slower downer" would have more time to blog?!?!?
hmmm, I guess not, just coming back looking for more pictures of your little dumplin' ~ I've got the itch, the pregnancy itch, can you hear my ovaries screaming?
that's funny. we're from "good stock." although, i wonder if i truly am mennonite if i have no desire to have children. i thought we were all meant for that ... have 18 kids while working in a field and go back to planting whatever it was you were planting ... while breastfeeding. hmm, i'm going to look into my heritage a little closer. ;)
you're doing an amazing job. seriously. watching my friends have children has made me appreciate my mom (and dad, too ... kinda hee hee) a lot more. i've heard that it's incredibly rewarding as well, but i still think you all don't hear the words "thank you" enough. i'm going to send my mom an email right now.
