Ritually reenacting the birth/first week PP has a healing experience

[Graceie]

We decide do this this Ive heard of it being done and am looking for answers ideas or suggestions about how or if anyone has a resource on it Ive just heard if it were really making it up has we go along

I'm trying to get members from the birth team there all except the midwife but we have a stand in for her I can even take the placenta ( it in the freezer )  for the first few days after and snuggle in bed with DS

I did a "rebirth" in my bath tub.  My mom just darkened the bathroom, except for candle light.  She and my husband knelt beside the tub.  I swished my ds slowly and gently across the warm water and then my husband hands and mine brought him to my chest.   His birth was great, but I did the rebirth  because of an epidural headache which I believe somehow messed with my baby's sucking.  Could not get him to nurse and I had to feed him breastmilk with a cup.  We did the rebirth on the 7th day, and he finally nursed the next day.  So it is healing.  We just went with, quiet, gentle, praying.
