Two Hearts as One (1)

All of us retain the imprint of our entire lives within our cells. -- Dr Christiane Northrup

Out of the blue, I suddenly desired vanilla pudding, something I normally did not eat. I immediately drove from my country home 25 miles to the nearest grocery store to fulfill that desire. When I arrived at the store, the notion came to me, "Maybe I need to buy a pregnancy test. No sense driving all this way just for one item."

I took the pregnancy test upon arriving home and was thrilled when the results proved positive. I had been thinking about having a child several months earlier and had quit a stressful job with that thought in mind. My daughter is thirteen years old today.

I was introduced to my future children in the first trimester. There had been many transmissions regarding their personal lives and what interested them up until the time their souls entered the womb. Mia was involved with healing, herbs, energy and polarity. Since she was born, she loves plants and flowers more than other children.

I can't share any additional information about the children because it would effect them when they're older. I know several things that I would never tell them. I'll see what happens. From past experiences, I know how easy it is for my personal matrix and stress pattern to shift things.

I sensed my children's personality in ways which correlate with their present patterns. During pregnancy, if you have a change in thinking patterns, interests, tastes in food, it's because there are two of you. I recommend keeping notes of variations on personality and interests because it defines the spirit you're carrying. During my pregnancy with Mia, it was so easy to eat, very simple. And Mia eats simply. Whereas during my pregnancy with Tommie, I ate virtually anything. And my son Tommie likes exotic, unusual tastes.

I experienced an intense relationship with color during pregnancy. It was almost as if I wanted to be enveloped that color. I would feel that color and almost smell that color, or visualize the color. With the first child, I painted the walls in his room a pinkish color. I wanted that color and wore pink clothes.

I desired a soft orange-pink color with my next child. That was very strong. After his birth, a friend intuitively gave him a kimono in that color. He looked really good in that color. In another pregnancy, I enjoyed looking at bright yellow. I liked to buy lemons, and decorated our home with yellow flowers.

Those colors may have been beneficial for me during the pregnancy in the same way that pregnant women sometimes desire certain foods.

Kiki My husband and I were discussing what to name our first child when I was about six months pregnant. We could not agree, so I suggested, "Let us ask the child." I put my hand on my belly and presented him with the two names and said. "When you hear the name you like, kick." He kicked on Dannion.

My husband didn't believe it. So I said, "Okay, we will do it again. Put your hand on my belly." So I said to the child, "Daddy wants to know. I will say the names and when you hear the name that you like, kick." He kicked real hard that time on Dannion.

I reflected the energies of each of my children when I was pregnant with them. Two are adults now and I see how their nature effected how I was during pregnancy. When I was pregnant with both my girls, I naturally wore silk, frills, white, and flowers. I noticed their energy was feminine.

My son permeated my whole being in my pregnancy with him. I wore sandalwood oil and plain, masculine clothing. I taught seventeen yoga classes per week up until two weeks before his birth. I was propelled by his energy. I was motivated by his physicalness. I was also attracted to masculine things. The epitome was driving out of my way to go over a particular bridge because it was being paved. I enjoyed feeling the gravel underneath the car. I felt like a ten-year-old boy riding my bike over gravel. Since birth, my son has had enough energy for ten people. He is athletic, dynamic and constantly creating and doing something.

Pregnancy was a blast -- like having your very best friend with you all the time. He took a bath with me. We listened to classical, uplifting music, and flute music. He went on walks with me. I talked to him. He was so strong and big. I could feel the times he was asleep. It was a total love affair. We're talking major bliss.

I never experienced him outside of myself. There was a lot of telepathy and intuitive interchange. He was always pushing out, so I could tickle his foot or little hand. We were connected in terms of nutrients and getting fresh air and walking in nature a lot. There was a sense of wonder in knowing the developmental stages of the fetus and finally at a certain stage looking like a human being.

My pregnancy was easy and comfortable except for nausea in the first trimester. I was aware of my vitality and my strength.I was healthy and strong in my first pregnancy at thirty-four.

I had been meditating for four years -- one hour in morning and one hour in evening. Instinctively, I started meditating four hours every day -- two hours in the morning and two hours at night. I spent more time turning my attention within, doing more selfless service and listening to spiritual discourse. I had been doing these things before, but they now became full-time rather than part-time.

I felt my son's presence all the time. I sang devotional songs to him. If I ever spaced out and was not totally focused, he kicked me. He came to me a lot in my dreams. I saw my baby and knew that he was a boy. It was beautiful.

During the fifth month of pregnancy, I was awakened by a presence in the middle of the night. I woke up to this rich fragrance of nectar. I felt like the Creator was hovering over me. Then he enveloped me with his presence and came into my body. I kept having this experience every night. My nights were outrageous; I felt like I was God's wife the whole time I was pregnant. Physical marriage on this planet has never appealed to me. My marriage to God has also been important -- not through religion or dogma, but through direct personal experience.

With Michale, it was as if I were the Creator's wife. I was the mother of his child. It was intimate. I felt like the Creator was coming and making love to me -- not in a physical sexual way, but in a divine way of merging with my soul and body. This went on for quite some time that I would be awakened by this fragrance. Oh, it was so amazing!

I don't know who this child is. I have tears in my eyes thinking about him.

I followed pregnancy dietary and life-style guidelines recommended by Ayurveda, the ancient healing, longevity and Self-Realization science of India.

I did as much as I possibly knew and could do. I followed a specific diet and took special herbs. The Ayurvedic clinic recommended reading books of great people or saints, spiritual books which my husband and I did.

Also I did hatha yoga asanas and sun salutations everyday up until the last three months. After that, I walked one mile everyday. Walking helped with the delivery because my experience was extraordinarily long -- 70 hour labor. Endurance is important and walking was soothing and at the same time it built up physical endurance.

My Ayurvedic doctor explained that there are ten different mind-body types due to the interaction between the internal forces working in the individual and the external forces in the environment. However, no matter what a woman's mind/body type, many women feel well balanced in the latter stages of pregnancy because the unborn child balances its mother's mind-body type. That was my experience.

When I had these babies inside me, they gave me the gift of being connected with a higher purpose and an expanded spirituality that I did not have. I felt wonderful -- tender and delicate not in the sense that I felt vulnerable and weak, but open and happy. I did extra meditation and had good experiences. There was no fatigue or drowsiness.

This experience peaked at seven months. I felt enlightened and total bliss. My health was super. An Ayurvedic doctor took my pulse when I was pregnant with my daughter, and said, "You are in perfect physiological balance."

For the first time in my life, I was samadosha! I experienced a spiritual exhilaration due to two souls in one body. My unborn child added to me created that physiology. Her little soul must have been very high for me to be samadosha. Pregnancy was an opportunity to evolve and experience that higher level. My mother had similar experiences and called it seventh month euphoria. Perhaps this is Mother Nature's compensation plan to mothers for bringing new children into the world.
