    -Natalie, March 8th

    3. What do you do all day? (i.e. job etc)
    Been a SAHM. I'm a therapist (licensed social worker) and quit my full time job right before returning at the end of May. I did just start working a couple hours, at a new job, starting one day a week. Eventually it will be two and a half days. I just need to build my caseload up.

    4. Two or three things you think you're most known for on the bump.
    -Probably nothing, I've always just posted when I can.

    5. Favorite thing to do when/if you have free time.
    -I don't really get free time to do what I want, like ever. Usual free time is when DD is nursing or when she has a good nap day. I'll pin on Pinterest or if she does nap on her own I clean. She's been going down at night super late so evenings with DH never happen either.

    -I love running but DD doesn't last the 30-40 minutes I'd like to run, without fussing and there's only been one evening where she cooperated for me to go out alone for 20 minutes.
    Dx: Non-IR PCOS
