To Moms Approaching The Final Days of Pregnancy,
You are made for growing, birthing, and nurturing your
baby. Everything you need is already
inside you, part of the unique individual that you are. During our time together (if you are a client) you tuned into your
own intuition. It can be a quiet, shy
voice calmly guiding you through life, or maybe a booming presence hard to
ignore. Trusting and listening to that
inner voice will guide you through labor, birth, and mothering.
As you approach labor, birth, and mothering your baby, know
that your decisions will be the right ones—right for you, right for your baby,
and right for your family. Find peace in
the empowerment that allows you to make informed decisions.
As you move through the final days of pregnancy, treasure
the moments. They are fleeting. Mothering is wonderful work, but there is
something indescribable about literally being full of life.
Be present—in this day, this moment, this page. Judging yourself and others for past actions,
words or situations is futile. Let it
go. The future isn’t here yet. It will happen how it happens. Your labor might not start how you imagined
on our meditations and visualizations, or it might be exactly what you
hope.
Arrange your life to build you up. Change what you need to change; whether that means
care providers, job situations, or something about yourself. Seek resolution and peace. Set your intention to be positive and
actively involved in this birth. It will
serve you well now and always to be fully present.
You are built to give birth to your baby. You are strong. You are a mother. You are not entering into this experience
blind. You will continue to seek information &
guidance from trusted sources and make the best decisions for your family.
You will
move mountains.
