LisaIt is so hard to actually let go but it is so important. They sense the anxiety / tension. If you can, light the candles and sit in a darkened space for a little while. Visualise the tension of waiting for this baby to arrive and the tension of preparing for a VBAC flowing out the bottom of your feet and out your fingertips. Feel the energy flow and as you do, visualise the uterus relaxing and opening like a flower. Like the petals as they open outwards. Do some focused breathing while you are visualising and with each breath out feel the tension leave your body. With each breath in feel a blanket of peace wrapping around you (or you can visualise white light being drawn in and surrounding you). When you are ready - shake your hands and feet to remove the tension clinging to them. Take a few deep breaths yoga style and know that you are ready, relaxed and prepared to accept the path your baby has chosen.
You can do a bath too where you spend some time talking to your baby and enjoying the few last moments of that beautiful belly and the movements inside (assuming you can get out)
You are ready. You can do this. You are prepared. Now is the time to let go and accept there is nothing more for you to do but wait and trustGive me a call if you need to chat. I know how hard those days just waiting are
