Pregnancy Week 22

You may be dealing with people wanting to touch your belly now that you’re oh-so-obviously pregnant. I wish I had advice to give you on this other than to wear a shirt that says, “DON’T TOUCH THE BELLY.”

I hope you don’t come across any strangers that feel it’s okay to touch you.

Oh yeah, and more Baby items, Specific Needed Items.
