Guest guest Posted August 10, 2002 Report Share Posted August 10, 2002 8/10/02 "Preparing for the Birth - Part 3" My middle looks like a basketball, although Ananda argues that it's bigger than one. It has gotten just as hard as a newly inflated ball about five times in the last hour and a half. Everything about me right now is getting ready for this birth. I wanted to get my hair trimmed first -- *giggle*. I know I am not in true labor because I have not forgotten what THAT felt like! The day before yesterday while getting my teeth cleaned the hygienist poked my gum with her pointy thing and my impulse was to relax. My hands and arms fell open and my whole body felt a "give." I knew in that moment that that would be my natural, instinctive response to the labor sensations. There has been a strong impulse to clean the nest lately. Today I scrubbed the big bathtub twice. I have been so extremely sensitive that everything and everyone around me IS me. I feel Everything. My thoughts and intuitions are about being open, open, open to the currents of Life that are flowing through. It is happening. Slowly and sweetly this new life has been taking form. Subtle and steady. I have been in a birthing process for a very long time and it feels like the culmination is near. Everyone around me can feel it. [...this one right now makes six times.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
