The baby dolls gave it away
Why I've been prepping for motherhood since I was 16
I don’t believe children drive us to do things that we didn’t already have the desire to do.
I believe that children are an amplification of who we are, and a reflector for the things we project.
From early on, I’ve established the belief that the habits I create today, and created yesterday, will be amplified once children come into the world;
That includes habits around both my physical and spiritual health (thank goodness for spirit baby communication to take care of the spiritual!)
I don’t think there is such thing as preparing ONCE you feel ready.
The preparation CREATES readiness and creates the foundation to expand a family.
I think playing with baby dolls gave away the hints of my desires. Of course plenty of little girls around the world have baby dolls to dress, to play with, and to nurture, but when I grew a little too old to have a baby doll in bed with me, the desire to nurture a little being never left.
I don’t make decisions without thinking of how it will effect my children’s lives, and the example I will set for them. That’s not restriction and “missing out” on the experiences of my early 20s; it’s allowing myself to move into the fullest potential of who I am that my children will get to expand upon with me.
I expect my children to guide me. That’s not a demand or a request, but an intention and something that I believe will happen naturally.
I don’t expect to know it all. I don’t expect to not make a mistake or two. But I do know that the little humans I’ll bring into this world will be reflections of me.
Allowing children to be our teachers just as much as we are to them can begin pre-conception. Connecting with my spirit baby has been the #1 thing I do along my preparation for motherhood in the near future.
Where there is a reflection, there is another perspective.
That other perspective, can be received as guidance.
When a soul is in their spirit baby state (in other words, the frequency they’re in when they have the intention of coming into this life), they are operating at a higher level of consciousness and knowing than we are.
They have direct access to the memories and experiences from their previous lifetimes, as well as ours, and the healing presence that can lead us to embodying our deepest purpose and desires.
When a spirit baby chooses you to be their parent, they are not looking for perfection. They are looking for a partner to collaborate and co-create with in this lifetime, whatever that may look like! (And even though you will be bringing them up in this life.)
Their guidance is accessible. Their guidance is safe. Their guidance is given with love and understanding.
I don’t see the preparation of motherhood to be just about the pregnancy, or the infant, or the toddler stage, or hoping I’ll do a good enough job to raise them into a healthy adult. I see the preparation of motherhood as the start to the deepest expansion, shedding, and rebirth that I will ever go through. To know that my spirit babies are with me on this journey provides me with the clarity and comfort moving forward into these next upcoming chapters of life.
Whether you connect with your spirit baby in meditation, in nature, or through setting an intention, here are some statements and questions you can ask them when you are in need of guidance,
“Spirit baby, I am open to receiving guidance on embodying my higher self. I am willing to receive your knowledge. Thank you.”
“Spirit baby, who do I need to become to attract x y z? Thank you.”
“Spirit baby, I am feeling (insert emotion) around (insert situation.) How can I bring healing to this situation? Thank you.”
Stay open to what comes through. You may notice that the statements and questions didn’t open with a “will this or that” happen. Spirit babies communicate in so many different ways, and being open to the possibilities of their perspective leads to receiving an answer that feels more expansive to what you are experiencing. If you find yourself in an either/or situation, you can ask your spirit baby to send you a sign within a given timeframe if you are meant to take an action on that thing. For example, it may sound like,
“Spirit baby, please send me a monarch butterfly within the next 24 hours if it is in my highest alignment to change my job.”
Whether you are in a stage of life where you are trying to conceive or not, there’s no denying the power of having a guide by your side to propel you into the most fulfilled life possible.
