Week 18 – Slingshot

The baby is the size of a slingshot

Growing in all areas

Moving forwards

“How much can we share of all the noises, movements, feelings and thoughts that I am experiencing now?”

Growing and Moving

It has been a very busy week, filled with an overall feeling of positive change.

The baby keeps growing and all seems to be going very well. He is moving a lot, which feels amazing, and I am having a bit more energy during the day. Feeling the baby move seems to be motivating and uplifting, somehow.

This increase in energy is very much welcome. It will be needed as we are moving to a new home. It’s going to be a new beginning and nest for our family. It’s wonderful to imagine the boy running around the house, growing healthy and strong.

There’s also a growing feeling of nurture, nesting and humility inside me. I just want to give this baby everything he needs to grow and become a healthy and authentic person.

Time machine

As I walk outside and see children of different ages, it feels like I’m in a time machine. Basically, I am looking at the same essence in different points in life. Our boy is already in one of those phases, even if a very early one. But looking at toddler, pre-teens, teens… they have all been babies in their diapers. And, if all goes well, they will all move on to the next phase, taking the baton of the new step in life. Everyone we ever met and never saw, was once like our baby is now. This is quite mindblowing, really.

What can our feel and sense already? Is he comfortable? How much can we share of all the noises, movements, feelings and thoughts that I am experiencing now?

A lot, I hope! Especially on a day like today, where all seems some magical.

Have a wonderful day, dear baby. We love you.
