You will need a very large pillow, like king size or bigger. Read the book, Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way. Find a doctor that will let you use the Bradley method. Here in Indiana, most of the doctors are against natural childbirth and a lot of the hospitals will not let you use it. I went to a birth center instead. Also get information on prenatal perenial massage. You need to do that during the last six weeks of your pregnancy. Practice the Bradley techniques whenever you get Braxton Hicks. By 30 weeks, start practicing regularily. Above all, be sure to have a doctor that is in favor of natural childbirth or you will not get it no matter what your wishes are.

I keep sowing love and compassion but I keep harvesting anger, injustice, hate and indifference. No your analogy doesn't work. The changes don't come like that, in a miraculous fashion, they may actually NEVER come in a lifetime's duration. These words are just an easy way to soothe the ego and give it hope in a seemingly hopeless world. The truth however is much bitterer than that. Many people out there are good hearted and they always get hardships jealousy, animosity and failures in their lives. I mean the greatest example of them all and which completely disproves your theory is JESUS. Look at it for a moment. Jesus was the embodiment of Love, he definitely sowed positive energy and feelings around him and look at what he got in return!!! What did he harvest? A "nice" crucifixion!!! The worst and most humiliating kind of death during that time period (Roman Era). If that doesn't convince that your analogy is wrong...I don't know what will. Furthermore, to say that sowing hatred will bring us hatred implies that we shouldn't do that and I think this is very unrealistic and selfish. If we were not meant to feel hatred in this world, hatred would not exist. It would never be experienced. We would be pure souls without negativity BUT we are not and that's why we are here and not on another dimension. Negative emotions exist b/c they are NEEDED in the grand scheme of things. We should not view them so negatively. They are our GUIDES as much as positive emotions are. Nothing in Creation is useless or 'bad'. Everything is Good and has a purpose. So you shouldn't reject negative emotions. They are a part of us and we should befriend them, not avoid them. The more you avoid them, the more they approach you and demand to be heard. So it could actually be the opposite of what you're saying: "When you don't sow hatred, you harvest more hatred"!!! because you ignore it and refuse to accept its existence and respect it for being what it is and playing its proper ROLE in this reality we are living in.

bring in a picture or an item that you can focus on everytime u have a contractions and when pushing the baby out. Make sure you have a supportive person in the room with you to help you through labor and delivery naturally.
