This has been the best and worst time to be pregnant!

I used to blog more about my personal life and well, haven't been doing so much lately. I've taken a little break from social media, Facebook more specifically, and it's been amazing! So since I'm not sharing personal stories there, here's your next personal blog! 

Covid-19 & pregnant. This has been such a crazy roller-coaster for everyone in the world. But living through this pandemic while carrying a child brings on a whole new kind of scary. We got the call on Sunday, March 15th that our school district would be cancelling school due to the Coronavirus until April 16th and not long after that non-essential businesses were to close their doors. Now I usually am one to look on the bright side of things and that's what has truly kept me sane throughout this past month. 

We are now 38 weeks pregnant. After starting care in Elko, NV, we soon switched to an amazing doctor in Riverton, UT; Dr. Twelves. We've been beyond happy with the care and love and the drive hasn't been too bad. We have amazing family close to the hospital that has made the transition so great. Something pushed me to deliver in Utah (well something in my gut and a few clients that had really pushed me to switch). It has felt like everything was falling into place. We have family to stay with during delivery, my due date is during spring break, and the hospital I chose to deliver at actually sits on top of my husband's old family farm. 

There was minimal things I had to worry about. Who was going to look after our kids and pick them up from school while I was headed to Utah for doctor's appointments? Who would help get the kids to and from school, dance, and baseball practice while the baby was so new? We had quite a few amazing friends pitch in to help in times of need... but then we got the call on Sunday, March 15th about how Nevada was taking Covid-19 so seriously.
