This week I touched on some intimate pregnancy issues, and some that may affect a woman in early stages of pregnancy.
In Let’s Talk About Pregnancy Intuition 1, I suggested that we as women can sense pregnancy before we get that positive test result. This can be an amazing thing for a woman, especially if she has been trying to conceive.
In Let’s Talk About Dreams During Pregnancy, I gave simple tips on how to use your dream journal as therapy. Sometimes our dreams can help us channel our feelings in a positive way.
In Let’s Talk About Pregnancy Intuition 2, I talked about using your intuition to discover your baby’s sex. Often, some mothers can sense this even before the sex is viewable on an ultrasound.
In Let’s Talk About Old Wives Tales, I talked more about determining baby’s sex by using traditional means. Some make sense, and others make none at all!
In Let’s Talk About Morning Sickness, I touched on some issues that don’t get discussed often. Some women suffer from severe nausea for more than just the first month or two. I hope to spread awareness as well as offer some natural remedies to consider.
In Let’s Talk About Calculating Your Due Date, I got a bit more technical and suggest reasons for why it is called an “Estimate Due Date”. Since there are actually a very small percentage of babies born on and around their due date, perhaps we should rethink how important this date really is when determining needs for induction.
In Let’s Talk About Choosing a Healthcare Provider, I offer ideas for alternatives to traditional Western obstetrical care during pregnancy. Remember, obstetricians are surgeons by trade, while midwifes catch babies by trade. Which do you think is more qualified to help you deliver your child?
In the coming weeks I will talk more about the Cultures of Childbearing, and where Western society fits in. I will also talk about the possible available birth-centered networks in your area, and how you can find your local natural-parenting community.
