Time for a break!

I knew the day would come that if I was lucky enough to get pregnant and got as far as getting a cerclage, that I would need to be on bed rest.  Well the day came and I had to break the news to work.   At the moment I’m on bed rest after the procedure, then I get to work from home for 3 weeks, after that it’s time for disability/FAML.  This is going to be a long road.  I actually don’t know how I feel, I feel lucky that I work at a big company that I’m able to get all these benefits and still have a job after all is said and done.  On the other hand I feel like it was like, ok see you later.  I don’t know if I’m looking into it too much, but I’m kind of bummed…maybe it’s also because I’ve been in bed for the past 5 days and can only get off to use the restroom.  It gives you lots of time to think about life, people, actions, etc.  I’m going to say this is a gift, nit just the baby, but also the ability to be sitting here in bed and getting an income, for as long that may last!
