Birth birth birth

This story made my day!

I am on a big birth tangent at the moment.



My friend gave birth to her second baby girl yesterday - she was born at home, into water and into her mumma's arms. What a beautiful and precious way to start life. This is the second friend of mine to birth this way in the past month... I'm so thrilled for them both and their families of course!

A bit over a year ago I participated in a research group discussion related to the spirituality of birth and menstruation and today I just received an email of the finished report.

It has blown me away reading over what I said in regards to my two experiences of birth and what they have each meant to me. I guess I just forget it most of the time, but my birth experience with Julian shaped me so much into who i am today...

I am going to ask for permission to post some of it on my blog. It is so central to my journey as an earthy spiritual mama.

I will update later if I get the ok.
