Anything but Restful, A Bedrest story: Aileen

If there’s one thing I can relate to directly, it’s the story of a high risk pregnancy. But the pregnancy that my guest encountered was something I have no first hand knowledge of: she ran into an issue that threatened a premature birth, which caused her doctor to prescribe bedrest–for five months, 150 days for anyone who is counting–of being horizontal, she was more or less plucked out of normal circulation and forced into bed.  We talk about what that dramatic transition was like and how she managed it, while also juggling way too many signficant life changes: a move from Brooklyn to a farm, from apartment to farmhouse, the start of a new business and more.
