The Pregnant Goddess

“When pregnant, the cells of the baby migrate into the mothers bloodstream and then circle back into the baby, it’s called “fetal-maternal microchimerism”.⁠
For 41 weeks, the cells circulate and merge backwards and forwards, and after the baby is born, many of these cells stay in the mother’s body, leaving a permanent imprint in the mothers tissues, bones, brain, and skin, and often stay there for decades. Every single child a mother has afterwards will leave a similar imprint on her body, too.
Even if a pregnancy doesn't go to full term or if you have an abortion, these cells still migrate into your bloodstream.
Research has shown that if a mother's heart is injured, fetal cells will rush to the site of the injury and change into different types of cells that specialize in mending the heart.
The baby helps repair the mother, while the mother builds the baby.
How cool is that?
This is often why certain illnesses vanish while pregnant.
It’s incredible how mothers bodies protect the baby at all costs, and the baby protects & rebuilds the mother back - so that the baby can develop safely and survive.
Think about crazy cravings for a moment. What was the mother deficient in that the baby made them crave?
Studies have also shown cells from a fetus in a mothers brain 18 years after she gave birth. How amazing is that?”
If you’re a mom you know how you can intuitively feel your child even when they are not there….Well, now there is scientific proof that moms carry them for years and years even after they have given birth to them.
I find this to be so very beautiful.

Unfortunately I haven't been posting because I was hospitalized and ended up miscarrying my baby. 😞 I will continue with the page but the content will be more about babies & raising child while keeping up with our spirituality. I will be changing the page name. I have a few ideas for what it will be but I would appreciate any recommendations you all have. I will also be adding some spiritual items for sale as well. Many blessings 💖

What Is Meditation?
Think of meditation as some quiet time to breathe and connect, be aware of passing thoughts, and to clear the mind.

Some say it’s finding inner peace, learning to let go, and getting in touch with yourself through breath, and through mental focus.

For some of us, it can be as simple as deep, in-and-out breaths in the bathroom stall at work as you try to focus on you, your body, and the baby. Or, you can take a class or retreat to your own special place in the house with pillows, a mat, and total silence.

What Are the Benefits?
Some of the benefits of practicing meditation include:

better sleep
connecting to your changing body
anxiety/stress relief
peace of mind
less tension
positive labor preparation
lower risk of postpartum depression
Doctors and scientists have studied the benefits of meditation on pregnant women and they have shown that it can help moms-to-be throughout pregnancy and especially at birth.

Moms who have high levels of stress or anxiety during pregnancy are more likely to deliver their babies at preterm or low birth weights.

Birth outcomes like those are a pressing public health issue, especially in the United States. Here, the national rates of preterm birth and low birth weight are 13 and 8 percent, respectively. This is according to a report published in the journal Psychology & Health.

Prenatal stress can also impact fetal development. Studies have shown that it can even affect cognitive, emotional, and physical development in infancy and childhood. All the more reason to squeeze in some meditation time!

🤰 Hello beautiful pregnant goddesses! As I move through week 8 of my pregnancy my concern for myself is that I am a lot older this time around and I want my body to be strong & healthy throughout my pregnancy, as well as being ready to give birth. I went for my first prenatal exam this week and asked my doctor if it would be okay for me to do some pregnancy yoga. After getting the green light from my doctor, tonight I began my first yoga session. I looked online for a beginners pregnancy yoga session to try out. I found one that I really enjoyed and thought I would share it with you all! I left a link to the YouTube video for you to follow along! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did! I'm also going to look into pregnancy meditation to see if it's any different than the meditation I already do I find anything that I really love I'll share it with you guys as well. Namaste to you & your babies. 🤰

🤰 How can I manage pregnancy mood swings?

Try to remind yourself that emotional upheaval is normal right now. That said, making a conscious effort to nurture yourself can help you stay on an even keel during turbulent times.

1. 💖 Take it easy. Resist the urge to tackle as many chores as you can before the baby comes. You may think you need to stencil bunnies on the nursery walls, reorganize all the closets, or put in serious overtime before going on maternity leave, but you don't. Put yourself at the top of your to-do list instead. After all, pampering yourself is an essential part of taking care of your baby.

2. 💖 Bond with your partner. Expressing how you're feeling while reassuring your partner of your love will go a long way toward nurturing your relationship. Make sure you're spending plenty of time together, and even go on a vacation if you can. Strengthen your connection now, so you can really be there for one another after the baby comes.

If you're single, do something to nurture your relationship with your friends and family, or look for a support group for single moms-to-be. This will provide vital support for you now as well as after your baby is born.

3. 💖 Do something that makes you feel good. This might mean carving out some special time for you and your partner. Or it might mean taking time alone to do something just for you: Take a nap, go for a walk, get a prenatal massage, or see a movie with a friend.
Talk it out. Air your worries about the future with understanding friends. Just putting your concerns into words often helps you get a handle on them or gives you insight into solutions. Keep the lines of communication open between you and your partner, and make it a two-way street: In addition to pouring out your feelings, listen to your partner, too.

4. 💖 Manage your stress. Rather than let the frustration in your life build up, find ways to decompress. Get plenty of sleep, eat well, exercise, and have some fun. Identify sources of stress in your life and change what you can, such as trimming your to-do list. If you still find that anxiety is creeping in, try taking a pregnancy yoga class, practicing meditation or other relaxation techniques, or consulting a professional counselor.
