“One Recumbent Mommy: A Humorous Encounter with Bedrest” is exactly what the title of the book suggests. My incredible story of laying down on the job, pregnant with my second child! My second pregnancy, confirmed in July 2008, started out just like any other- the confirmatory blood test, the obligatory post-dinner purge, the necessary and all-important 3 hour nap from 4:30 pm-7:30 pm right before retiring to bed for the night at 8 pm. You know, the usual. My routine of popping a mint Tic-Tac to stave off nausea first thing in the morning, and my bizarre "only when I'm pregnant" love affair with white bread was also familiar. All in all it was a typical first trimester for me. When I headed for my 20 week ultrasound, that's when things started to go awry. But this is a humorous book, so don’t be alarmed…read on and enjoy!
