It's nice to know that my blog is serving the purpose that I set out when I went public six months ago. I have received countless searches for topics that I found difficult to find info on when I was first looking (such as de quervain's or brachial cleft) so it is nice to know that my blog can provide helpful information to others, as well as to offer hope (for struggles such as breastfeeding or having a posterior baby with a small pelvis but still delivering naturally). It has been rewarding to have readers return even if I've moved on to a different topic than what first brought them here. It makes me feel like the time & energy that I've put into blogging is worth it. Thank you to EVERYONE who reads my blog!!!!
