Pregnant for What Feels Like MA-TERNITY

Exactly four weeks until my due date (not that I'm counting) ;)

I shared a bit about some of my recent mental health struggles on IG stories (saved them in this highlight 2 weeks ago).

Pregnancy has been... hard. I know that everyone's experience is different but it's felt like an out-of-body experience for me. And not in the butterflies and rainbows kind of way.

I found a lot of comfort in hearing that many women also didn't love being pregnant. It's definitely amazing what our bodies are capable of.

But, for a lot of women, it's a lot of other things too—uncomfortable, painful, exhausting, and LONG—both mentally and physically.

All that said, I'm at the point where I'm at my limit.

So, I'm hoping to start scaling back on work over the next couple of weeks and prepare for the next chapter.

Send me strength for this final stretch!
