Things changed a lot for me with covid. I found out I was pregnant the day everything shut down. My job went entirely remote and I tried to social distance since I was pregnant. Then when I had the baby things hadn’t really gotten any better and Florida has always been a hot spot so I tried to distance to protect the baby. I got the vaccine so I feel a little better about going out now, but for the most part really don’t. We’ve gone to visit my parents one that’s been her longest drive so far and she’s been out to restaurants a few times and the zoo. But overall really haven’t gone anywhere since March 2020 so I am a little nervous for the trip but I am excited too. It’s definitely going to be an adventure for me since I exclusively pump and have to figure that out and being out long enough to need to change the baby out and about too all new experiences.Man, COVID really has changed things for people. I think as an essential employee I tend to forget that there really are people who haven't really gone anywhere for the past year +. Nothing changed for me except adding a mask and things being more difficult to get. Its so weird to me to think you've not been anywhere for long enough to change a diaper lol. Please don't think I'm being mean or anything, it just is really odd to me because I legit do not know a single person in real life who has been home like that. I think I would have gone nuts when my kids were babies being home ALL the time. Heck they are 7 & 10 and I hate when we are stuck at home even for a weekend. Sometimes when I read these threads it really hits me how much things have changed for a lot of people.
