Growing Babies
Pregnancy has always seemed magical to me. This time, pregnancy will deepen the emotional connection with my husband. The feet massages will feel good at the end of a long day. The belly kisses will show our baby love before he or she arrives. Feeling the movement with my husband will help teach spatial awareness before birth. Singing lullabies while dancing at the end of the day will put the baby to sleep so I can sleep. During labor, I will have a partner who wants to help me cope with the rhythmic pattern of contractions. He will hold my hand, kiss my forehead. Massage my body. After cutting the umbilical cord, we will snuggle in bed as a family. Excited beyond belief. Delighted with joy. Happy for the journey that awaits. Inspired by the miracle. Liberated from past trauma. Love will trump hate.
