You have birthed your beautiful baby! As you clutch your babe on your chest, soaking in their warmth and sweet smell, the initial disbelief is swallowed by awe, love, and pride.
You danced the dance of taking charge of what was in your control and surrendering to the process of birth. You felt well-informed and supported to make any decisions that were needed, while always connected to your embodied knowledge, what your mama instincts were telling you about your body, your baby and what was right for you.
You birthed in an atmosphere of love and you were supported and cared for with respect and kindness by people you trust and who trust and believe in you.
How does that feel? Perhaps close your eyes for a minute and notice what sensations show up in your body when you hold this vision in mind.
And now bringing awareness to the present. What do you feel could help you to move towards having this or any other type of experience important to you in how you birth? Will it impact the model of care you choose? Your choice of care-provider? The additional support you engage? How you prepare your body and mind? How you and your birthing partner move toward working beautifully as a team?
