Lorel - don't feel like the lone ranger, Tonto is right behind you. With my strict bedrest, I need someone to take care of the kids. When I was pg w/ DS#2, MIL moved in with us. After DS2 was born, she said never again. It'd been a long time since she cared for a toddler lol. So when I found out I was pg w/ DD, I cried and cried. I called DH sobbing on the phone. He thought someone had died. Luckily, my uterus behaved (and a new multivit+stool softener really cut down on my ctx - is that TMI?) and given that I was driving DS#2 to preK, and cooking light dinners, I managed to carry her to 35weeks. The boys would sort the laundry, drag the basket to the stairs, launch it downstairs, go to the bottom and put the clothes back in it, and put them in the washer. I'd then start the washer. Dh would then transfer the clothes to the dryer when he got home from work. That seems like ages ago.... Dd is now 1.5yrs old!
