In the mornings
By Brightstar » Posted Jan. 5, 2013 6:09am - 157 views - 0 comments

I was so restless last night.then this morning I was bothered because I never feel the symptoms in the morning.I must say I love feeling the symptoms,they are like a natural reasurrance.Each morning I thank God for protecting this pregnancy,I get so frightened after losing the last 2.I am no longer angry about it,I am sad.
Not sure what else to write really.I had strong heartburn as I layed to sleep last night too.
So yes ,feeling a little flat.I shall make up the day as I go along.We decided a few weeks ago to treat the sunday as a sabbath,so it's really nice not going out shopping,just to stay home and relax,I love it.Thankyou God.
I don't feel like writing today,but I will as I have commited myself to writing each day even if I don't feel like it,and I dont feel like it,but here I am doing it anyway,good girl me hehehe.
Today my focus is to relax,accept any of my fearful thoughts,then replace them with better ones.
I don't remember with the last babies how strong my symptoms were,its all a blur to me.I tend to put things out of sight out of mind,you know somethings are often just too painful to remember.
To be honest with you,deep down in my heart I feel this pregnancy is going well,and I am grateful.Thankyou God.
I am a sculptor and last night I made a sculpt of the baby at this stage,but not to actual size as the size would be so teeny tiny!:)How God did you make something so tiny and so amazing?
There's no sunshine today,its rainy and a little grey,I can see the trees in the distance,being surrounded by trees always makes me feel protected for some reason.
I have handled winter alott better this year,learning to love and appreciate every season,not just the ones that suit me!!:)I noticed with nature,with pregnancy,everything is gradual,everything is constantly changing,but its gradual,so thats how I will handle changes I am making this year,nice and easy does it.
I find change quite easy because I like it,I get uncomfortable when everything appears to be remaining the same.
wow these apples are so juicy and delicious,Thankyou God.
I'm not religious,but I do believe in God,there's no other way could I have got through my life if there wasn't a God.No matter how hard things have been,I have always known that God is there.
They say you see it to believe it,I say you have to believe to see it.I see God in so many places,in the beauty of my children,in nature,in the beautiful canvas of the skies.Religion annoys me a little,as with religion comes seperation,now this is no disrespect to people who are religious,this is just my feelings right now on this particular subject.
We should not have to go to a church or a mosque to prove our love and devotion for God.I mean all things that I do,I do it with God in my thoughts.I pray pretty much all day,because if I don't then life doesn't run so smoothly.I love to pray,when we write we pray,we can pray whilst we clean the house,we can pray as we walk.I believe the best prayer to be,the prayer of gratitude.I certainly didn't expect to talk about Goid with such depth today,I hope you can relate in some way.
so today I am going to focus on tuning into my body more,I have started to bring in just 5 minutes of callanetics by callan pinkey,I tell you that because people often say,''oh you mean callisthetics'',nope ,I know how to spell and I know what I said.Anyway,callanetics is something I have practised for over 16 years,I love it.for the pregnancy,the stomach rounds are very deep,she says not to do them in the first tri,so here I am not doing them,would be way to much for the baby/ies,but at the same time,I dont want my body to be weak,need to be strong to carry the pregnancy and to give birth.So for january,just 5 minutes a day of callan,then I have brought bellydance back into my life again,o I love it,bellydance was often danced by pregnant/birthing ladies.
