ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the author provides a space for taking care of pregnant women without inducing unnecessary fear, helping them gain confidence in their body's abilities to make a baby, to carry a baby, to birth a baby, and to nurture a baby. Over the years the author found that the pregnant body is amazing to work with because hormonally everything is softening and there is a surrender of a kind and yielding into the body, which makes it easy to take women there. A lot of pregnant women are afraid, some of them are even afraid of the baby growing inside, of becoming mothers, of their own ability to have a baby who is normal, of their capacity to love. Pregnant women belong to an ancient culture of birthing and that is not very difficult to connect with.
