[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think this will be too much of an issue as long as you stick to your bed rest orders. You won't be able to go downstairs or infringe on your nanny's space. I would just talk to her about when you would like the kids to be able to come to see you (whenever they want, at a set time, etc.)

I would also consider asking your nanny how much she would be willing to help you during this time. As a nanny myself, I would have no problem making an extra sandwich at lunch time or bringing you a glass of water once in a while if that helped you any. [/quote]

You do realize that when someone gets up to pee, it doesn't matter if they then go to a bed or a couch as long as their feet are elevated, right? And that not everyone has a downstairs? [/quote]

You do realize that bed rest sucks? That it is incredibly stressful on everyone in the family? That the mom's physical fitness rapidly declines? That after several weeks she can barely get to the bathroom without feeling taxed? That this is the time when a nanny can help ease the stress on the other kids by keeping their routines and making them feel secure? That the mom appreciates all that, even as she feels inadequate at gestating?

Get over it. The mom is on bed rest. Believe me, she has enough on her plate without worrying that her nanny doesn't like having her around.
