I trust my instincts to do what is best for my baby

I am a strong and capable woman

I feel the love of others around me

This is a new birth and a new baby unique unto itself


Good luck Mel

You know Mel, I was born on time, and have made people wait ever since - perhaps Rabbit's doing it the other way round, making you wait now and will be on time for everything as a teenager?
(yes, I know predicting a punctual teenager is optimistic :P)

Hope you're having a good comfortable day, that you and Aricyn are able to enjoy special moments as his time as an only child draws to a close. You will do so well when it is Rabbit's time to be born - you have done so well already.

Babies really need to 'ripen' in their own way- regardless of whether that fits an arbitrary timetable or not. Imagine a tree filled with apples. Now we all know that some apples ripen early, many at the same time, some much later- we all know about how one apple will just stay on the tree for days and days- even weeks- after all the others have fallen off. I have personally waited for apples like that- and gently shaking the tree has no effect on getting them to come off. Whacking the apple with a stick would make it fall off... but the apple would not be at its most delectable. So- I wait, and my reward is a sweet, big, juicy apple.

One sweet juicy gorgeous, delectable baby coming your way my love.

Mel ,you are providing the perfect place for Rabbit and doing such a good job, shes la ying back in there, nice and comfortable. She alone knows exactly when its the right time for her to come out and greet her wonderful family. When she does you will be so ready to meet her , every thing will be perfect. No one can say you are not prepared for her!

Love the analogy Tan!

I just found these gorgeous words that I wanted to share:

You are a woman, a daughter or daughters.
Within you is the strength, courage, and love of woman; of a mother.
You have been given this gift because you can do this, it has always been in you to do this.
Do not fear what is to be, rather, go forth, in knowledge and confidence.
Follow your heart, your instincts; they will not lie to you.
