Birth is part of your Journey to Motherhood - Guest Blogger

Sheridan is one of my favorite birth-y blog owners; she writes at Enjoy Birth. When I made a call for Conscious Family series blogs, she jumped at the opportunity! I am so glad that she contributed. She is mom of 3 Busy Boys, a Hypnobabies Instructor, a Hypno-Doula, Proud VBAC mom, Loving Lactivist, Positive Birth Story Collector, the creator of the online childbirth class series “Know Your Options” and now author of The Top Three Tips to Enjoy Your Birth!

She is definitely an inspired author and I am happy that she has contributed to this event. As part of our conscious family series, she has written about Birth as a conscious family act.
"Think about 3 different women who want to come to America.

  1. One woman might have to climb on an overfilled boat, risking her life and nearly dying as she escapes over the ocean to come to this land. This experience could certainly be life altering. It may very well color the rest of her life, positively or negatively. (I overcame this amazing struggle and here I am triumphant! OR Holy crap, that was SO hard I don’t know if I can go on! By the way, neither response is “right”. No one would judge the woman with the 2nd response.)
  2. One woman may buy an airplane ticket, sit on a comfortable 747 and fly to America with a nice smooth flight and landing. She is happy to be in America. Those welcoming her are glad she is here safe and sound. She may only travel by plane 2-4 times in her life, so it is pretty memorable. But the journey itself probably wouldn’t be life changing; it would simply be a journey.
  3. One woman may learn to fly an ultra-light plane to lead a flock of geese into America teaching them to migrate. This experience could certainly be empowering and life altering."
