Week 40 - Baby Born
I had to come back and write this, but the night I went into labor we had friends come over and show us a series of things they do while in labor. from cat cow to the husband pushing on the low part of the back while in table. all of which felt good. We did breath work together. It’s amazing the difference of doing it alone as well as doing it with a partner. I got into a savasana pose and my husband adjusted me according to what i told him i needed. I don’t know why I didn’t think of this sooner, but it felt heavenly.
Overall i felt trying to keep some sort of a Yoga practice and relying on my resources and the things I was taught at Bodhi Yoga. As well as letting go of this expectation to make it an intense workout I felt really kept me grounded and at peace with where I was at in each phase of my pregnancy. Thanks for this challenge or I’m sure I would have just sat on my rump until baby came!
