Protector of Pregnant Women and Babies


My daughter's school is studying Ancient Egypt this year.
We went on a field trip to see the King Tut exhibit in San Francisco last week.

We stopped in San Jose at the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum in San Jose.
It was a great enrichment trip for us... My daughter loved being able to walk thru the tomb and see a real mummy and all the great artifacts.

While visiting I ran into Taweret, the goddess of childbirth. She was responsible for looking after pregnant women and babies.

I have seen so many articles on this recently.

Hopefully this is a wake up call for the childbirth community.
Cesarean is not done without risk!

Labor is hard work... for everyone



While laboring with one of my clients on Saturday, I was reminded of how little control we have over our labor. She sailed thru to 9cm and got held up there for awhile. It was intense but she was strong and powerful as she coped with her contractions! It was so rewarding to see the little face of her newborn... It seemed everyone in the room was working toward one common goal to support her in this transformation, it was beautiful. Not everyone is so blessed with such support!
