Pregnancy Week 3 – Supporting A Baby’s Neural Tube For A Healthy Spine For Your Baby
Posted by: | CommentsAt around the 21st day following conception, a neural tube is formed in the embryo.
Initially, this tube does not close completely. Pores are present until approx. the 25th day. The last pores close on the 26th and 27th day of gestation and are at located at the baby’s (the embryo’s) head and tail.
Spina Bifida is caused by failure of pore closure (J.Upledger).
So along with enjoying a healthy diet including folic acid, you can support your baby around this time by reminding him to close all the pores at the perfect time.
Visualise the tube closed fully and your baby enjoying excellent health and flexibility in his spine and body… now and after birth. You can also imagine a golden, nourishing light around your baby helping in this process.

Pregnancy Week 2 – Wisdom From Your Embryo For You
Posted by: | CommentsAt around the second week of development, the notochord, a solid line of cells appears in the embryo.
In some mysterious manner, these cells induce the development of the neural tube, brain, spinal cord, vertebral column and related muscles.
This vital step could not take place without the notochord. Once the induction of the above has been established, the notochord disappears (J.Upledger, A Brain Is Born).
In other words, the function of the notochord is to inspire!
Another reminder from nature that the presence of inspiring others in our lives helps us to reach goals that otherwise would not be possible for us.
It echoes the coaching programs offered at www.magicalbeginningsforbaby.com which are designed to activate your next step in inspired fertility, pregnancy and parenting and teach you this process too.
Who in your life is inspiring your next step forward? What kind of support do you need for fulfilling success in fertility, parenting and beyond?

Words – Windows to the Inner World
Posted by: | CommentsEach word uttered echoes within you through changes in your physiology.
The waves of energy that you hear as words with meaning can, in a flash, evoke feelings of despair or elation.
Words are rarely innocent bystanders watching a game. Each of us has coded them differently so that some belong to the winning team while others we associate with pain and loss.
The word ‘love’ will, for some, illicit a deep joy. For others however, ‘love’ comes to represent what they believe they will never have and so triggers pain.
The impact of the word on your body provides clues as to where your energy might be knotted in some way.
You can take the time to sit quietly and explore how these words rest in your body: mother, pregnant, birth, sex, love, fertile, full-term, family, support and breastfeeding.
Notice whether you feel comfortable or otherwise as you choose one and repeat it… with you eyes closed until you have a sense of how that is for your body.
What did you notice? Are there issues that may need untangled so that energy can flow in your fertility, pregnancy, birth and parenting?
Which one did you perceive as your priority now?
In joy,
