Bedroom makeover
  Bed rest and pregnancy is only temporary . . .but after a few weeks it may seem forever. Making yourself a comfortable retreat may be essential for your mood.   
   
 
   

Your Surroundings
It may take a little planning to adapt your surroundings.
quality bed linen is more comfortable to your skin
extra pillows are a necessity
your own pillows, throw, or quilt (if you're in the hospital)
Stay with your usual routines. If you usually wear makeup, continue wearing it—it will make you feel better.
a bed clip-lamp for reading and crafts
bedpans and TP are covered easily with a pretty towel
arrange the phone, TV, VCR/DVD, and computer for easy use
an empty laundry basket is great for used cups, dishes, etc.
baskets can hold and organize magazines, books, videos, and snacks
