After 30 hours of waiting around for an induction that was pushed back over and over due to other emergencies coming in, we ended thoughts of a leap year baby by waters breaking at 12.25am and my little Khalsa Singh 🦁 in my arms at 02.35am on March 1st, weighing 7lbs 1oz (a little one, compared to my usual 9pounders) 😆 . If I thought Gobind Singh’s birth was amazing, well Guru Sahib just topped it - which I cannot wait to share soon ( especially my approach, mindset and technique) for others to embrace. . So thankful to all my support network : @sikhmum what’s app group, my osteopath @pindychaggar @loveyourbackosteopathy , my amazing friend doula and therapist @motherandbump , @sikhdad , my sister , parents and in-laws , amazing NHS, and my babies MK GK and GSjnr. Not forgetting everyone in my IG famajam who said a prayer for me, had a positive sentiment or wish for me and baby Singh 💛 . Embracing cultural tradition this time, I am going into a 40 day cleanse and healing period where i will not see anyone and go out of the house (unless necessary). This period is a time for healing (even without stitches, my internal body needs time to get strong), adjusting and rest. . #kaurmaternity #kaur #singh #khalsa #sikh #sikhi #sikhmum #sikhmom #sikhmumcomm #sikhmumcommunity #sikhmumoffour #naturallabour #naturalbirth #naturalplacentabirth #gestationaldiabetes #nopainrelief #painlessbirthing #spiritualbirth #swasswasbirth #pregnancyandbeyond #pregnancybeyond
