I keep typing this up and not posting it but this I am going to this time!!
Any mums here interested in law of attraction and/or just plain old positive thinking?
I really think that my recent exposure to these thoughts is helping me enjoy my pregnancy so much more than last time. Not only was my journey to pregnancy heavily influenced by it, and such an empowering and enjoyable process, I simply feel so much better than I imagined I would!
Only a few short months ago I wouldn't have fathomed being 10 weeks with no vomiting, the best i could latch onto was accepting very noncommittally that there was a possibility of pregnancy with no morning sickness
Like, I'll grudgingly admit it's happened to other people LOL I think that all my actions leading up to creating a healthy self and pregnancy and accepting even in a small way it is possible and letting the wedge of that possibility into my belief has been central.
I am far more proactive about looking after myself than last time and have headed off all except 3 bouts of ickiness. And my mindset of a much wanted and anticipated pregnancy as opposed to a BIG surprise makes a huge difference. (Not saying those suffering with MS are "to blame" either, just that this is how this is working for me and what I understand about myself this pregnancy and my last). At first I took it as a "bad" sign but quickly decided that was not a great way to think, if I could order a healthy nausea and puking free pregnancy I would, so why not accept what I have seemingly been offered? Not looking this gift horse in the mouth!
So, this is all fueling my belief that I can have a fabulous birth at home the way I want it. That I am making conscious positive choices that have positive momentum. Here comes another wedge, of what I believe can happen in theory to what can happen in reality!
I created a vision board to help me find my midwife and I tweaked it just a little bit the night before I met the midwife I have decided to hire. That she pretty much spoke the language of law of attraction sealed it for me along side her (non)clinical approach, I really am glad to be working with someone who thinks like that.
I have always been a pretty pragmatic and not all that spiritually inclined. And I baulk a bit at "stuff like that" but I feel like I had too many coincidences telling me to pay attention to my spiritual growth to ignore last year. I feel like I'm in spiritual puberty, and am shy about my changes and apt to hide them from all but a few. So to have a midwife who I am not embarrassed about this stuff with is a real gift
And so, my "embarrassment" is why I have deleted this post a few times already LOL The down side, if there really is one, of this process for me is that participating in pregnancy groups online is harder. Pregnant women are apt to worry and have more than the usual amount of physical challenges. I just can't afford to dwell on that stuff so I am not so great at offering emotional support because I am not reading half the stuff!! It's not because I don't care about others, it's just that I am not sure I'm in a place not to be influenced.
Anyway, I thought I'd post and see who else is out there that is drawn to this stuff?
