Pushing.... both in labor and in life, it is exciting to get the urge to push. However, make sure you are really ready to do so. The baby will get here, firstly assess your rest level. Is it time for a breather? The contractions have spaced out and you can regain some energy lost in transition. You may even be able to eat a bit of something in between pushing surges. Do not be in a hurry to get the baby out, but instead be ready to follow the natural leading of the body and baby. Remember to talk to your baby, calling them into your arms and telling them to trust, let go, and come out. Pace yourself. Do not start to fear. Now is time to use your energy with the natural body instinct to be a force together. Do not push until there is a contraction. Bearing down internally while focusing on the outcome. It is worth going through this process for the joy set before you of your baby in your arms. You can do this work. Keep your head positive and gain strength from God or support people. Worth it in every way.

Birthing and parenting go hand in hand. Making room for a baby to enter the family space, can take the full 40 weeks, but the preparation of family is worth it. Talk to other children, even very young ones or much older ones, assuring them that you have enough love for all and that loves grows. You will not be taking love from them. You will be growing more love for all. Teach them to grow love in their hearts for the new family member before they arrive. Life lessons, we can always grow more love. It may take concentrated efforts, like growing a rose in a different soil, but it will grow if you cultivate a culture of love in your home and heart.

Remember that pregnancy is a state of health, in and of itself. As with anything human, there can be challenges or things outside of normal that need specialist care. However, the majority of healthy women all over the world are able to have a healthy mindset about their growing body and baby, as well as a healthy intervention-free delivery. Start your pregnancy with a healthy mind. Think positively about the process and trust your Maker.

Birth philosophy: Preventative.
Nutritional health, emotional health, physical health... take small steps forward progressively to achieve your goals. This is like parenting, it's the small things that add up over time.

The labor process must be viewed with expectation to stay in the process until the work has been completed, rest in the process mentally knowing that you can't think your way through, trust the process and the One who made your body, and even find enjoyment in the process..... all of this prior to the baby being born. However lengthy or short your labor process is, be in it and thrive in it knowing it is worth it and you will overcome.

Healthy action steps take work. One food good choice and one step on a walk and you are on your way to nutritional change and exercise. It is not possible to ever be perfect. However, we can make small choices that when combined have rewards of healthier children, pregnancy, marriage, and personal wellness. Give yourself credit for the small steps or drastic leaps that you can make into the path of health. It will make a difference!

Mother's! Your work is so important. Never minimize the work of raising up the next generation. The way in which you tough it out every day, climb mountains to help others, train your children, and give even your body as a womb home for a destined human being to live in..... it's worth it more than you realize. Good job!

Step into your destiny! Grab hold of the new day. Once your baby is here, shut the door on the things that war against you moving forward in victory and authority. You are more than able to do all things through Him who created you to be a mom. This realm goes from phase to phase. Recognize the new season you have entered and fully embrace the new hat you just proudly gained. Good job women!
