Bonding with your Baby

Waiting to feel the soft rosy petal feet of the new born,to joyfully smile listening to the cry, to look for similarities with you in the baby, the enigmatic fragrance unique to the new born, to sense the gush of feed in your breast at the baby’s cry , all the pains undergone, the discomfort in the health, the anxiety, the labor pain, the excited waiting of 10 long months…. everything disappears at the very moment the new mom holds the bundle of joy in her arms. 

“Akka, I must share this with you” 

Kavya looked so thrilled and excited when she began narrating the event. 

“Yesterday, I was busy browsing in the net and totally forgot my stimulation exercises. All of a sudden baby kicked me so forcefully that I got up from my seat. Responding to the kick, I looked at the clock and felt awestruck…It is my every day talk time with the baby. It is amazing that baby kicked me to remind me of the same”. 

I vividly remember her thrill when she was telling me this the next day with her eyes wide open and a big smile adorning her beautiful face…


Looking at Laksya now reminds of me of her mom’s narration during Chaitanyam Classes. I cuddle the little bundle of joy wrapped in soft towel and when I call her “baby”, her smile and response is so instant making me feel goose bumps.

 “Akka, yesterday when we were rushing to the hospital at 1o’clock in the night, guess what was Mahi up to? She was quickly going through her notes of Chaitanyam. I was asking her if she wanted any bit papers to get into the labor room”. Kamesh greeted me with a big hearty laughter at the hospital.

“Though it was a prolonged labor, she was very strong and both are fine now”. Mahi’s mother welcomes me with a box full of chocolates.  In spite of the tiredness and excitement, Mahi looks extremely happy and I am moved to joyful tears when she holds my hands to say “Thank you Akka”.

It is four months now and What an enjoyment to see little Diya doodle, listen to her aah..ooh.. and see her trying to crawl.

“Thank you Akka, She is fine. We are blessed with a baby boy”. Praveen calls up from Bangalore.

“God bless Praveen and how did you” …Even before I complete my question, swift comes the reply. “ No, no, I did not accompany her to the labor room. She went all by herself “

He sounded happy and relieved. The very thought of Pooja brings a smile. She was arrogantly stubborn in insisting that her husband accompany her to the labor ward. 
Poor Praveen was hesitant, fearful and not in favor of the idea.

I am glad that she managed all by herself taking the belief she learnt in Chaitanyam that we have all the resources within us.

In this blog, I intended to brief on what I run through in my Chaitanyam program to support pregnant mothers. And I have shared a few wonderful experiences of my delegates as I feel these feedback speaks more on the program.

       to learn more....

Thank you God, it is bountiful blessing to support young mothers enjoy pregnancy, communicate with the baby to be born and manage delivery with grace.
            
Chaitanyam has made me fall in love again.  This is a bigger selfless love.

Thank you Ramesh.

My journey in NLP has made me find my deepest truth within and the result is Chaitanyam

I understand what inner happiness is and I am glad that I am falling in love 
with a new world of newborns and new mothers.
