Pregnancy Meditations

6. Meditation for the Fifth Month of Pregnancy

You feel baby’s movements for the first time! Maternal responsibility is felt more acutely as you reflect on body developments with your child. You redouble your efforts to create a stress-free environment. Meditations: Listen daily in a peaceful place for the duration of each month of pregnancy. Try to sit undisturbed and relaxed for at least ten minutes. Let the Meditation spark your own inner voice to continue meditating and praying in your own words. (More in Introduction.) Written and spoken by Catherine Stone, a longtime birth and postpartum doula and lactation specialist in the San Francisco bay area. Music from Dawn Chorus by Sundaug.
