Inspired by Another Mother- Hypno birthing Water Birth

Today started with a surprise, no one realised when they woke today this mother would be born.

I arrived to see her face shining with a light between nervousness and excitement. Mumma seemed calm, focused, as her waters gushed, she shifted from bathroom to bedside, then bouncing on her ball, listening to her affirmations. 

I prepared the room and gave her space to do her thing, she quietly surged while gently moving, swaying, she is beautiful, peaceful, the room is tranquil. I fill the bath, diffuse clary sage, set lighting, whenever I glimpse over to her she looks beautiful. 

As the feeling intensifies she moves to the bath, she moves eloquently as the waters form soft waves, she smiles as her body floats to her back, I feel the atmosphere become greater knowing a mumma is about to be born all over again. 

She subtly starts to bear down, bottom floats and rises with her strength and determination. I look down and see the baby emerging, I am filled with excitement as I watch on another mumma being born.

Baby's head is born as mumma continues to surge, softly floating, babies head begins to rotate and looks for her mum. As baby emerges I signal mumma to take a moment then reach down to take her baby. Baby is just under the surface, anticipating her mother's hold, gazing forth waiting to see this amazing woman who will be her mother. 
​
The space was beautiful as mum reaches down and brings her baby to her chest and places her near her heart. Baby is comforted with that familiar sound, mum smiles, it is a little relief, a little overwhelming, slight shock, but mostly love, so much love. 
She snuggles her daughter who will one day have her own right of passage.... BIRTH.... it all its rawness and beauty.
