    Sounds like modified bedrest to me.

    Yep, modifed bed rest. You can probably get up for short periods of time (fix a sandwich or glass of milk...etc), but no long shopping trips and try to rest reclined as much as possible.

    It gets hard on the back and tailbone so get lots of pillows. Dig out a deck of cards, some puzzle books, laptop, movies and just chill! :D
