What I am looking forward to: Sleeping on my tummy. Recently its been really difficult to sleep for any period of time at night. I cannot wait until I can sleep and turn over again in my sleep!
Weekly Wisdom: Pregnant people are not broken or handicapped. Please don't assume that they cannot lift anything, stand for periods of time, or do things for themselves. If I need help or cannot do something alone, I will ask. Don't just assume I can't do anything, its very irritating to be treated like something is wrong with you.
Milestones: Started working a lot more lately at HotCakes & been able to stand for 8 hour periods of time. Although this isn't a pregnancy milestone, I'm considering it an accomplishment :)
