NEED SLEEP NOW?

There is a lot of information in this blog which explains the need for these suggested sleep methods.

This link will take you to SLEEP NOW ideas

If you are confused by the suggestions which seem to go against what other people, family and friends are suggesting please do come back and read through the material I’ve found.

PLEASE USE LABELS OR ARCHIVE TO NAVIGATE
Many posts will have a links to another site with some information that I have found very helpful or interesting.

When we hear a Dharma talk or study a sutra, our only job is to remain open. Usually when we hear or read something new, we just compare it to our own ideas. If it is the same, we accept it and say that it is correct. If it is not, we say it is incorrect. In either case, we learn nothing. If we read or listen with an open mind and an open heart, the rain of the Dharma will penetrate the soil of our consciousness.

While reading or listening, don't work too hard. Be like the earth. When the rain comes, the earth only has to open herself up to the rain. Allow the rain of the Dharma to come in and penetrate the seeds that are buried deep in your consciousness. A teacher cannot give you the truth. The truth is already in you. You only need to open yourself - body, mind, and heart - so that his or her teachings will penetrate your own seeds of understanding and enlightenment. if you let the words enter you, the soil and the seeds will do the rest of the work.

I know I’m being impatient

Both Dave and I laugh saying we both want Next Bubba to come now! stamp the foot...then we laugh saying that in another month we'll probably be saying "put it back".
Ara has given up saying "I think next bubba will come today" but she still enjoys planning her houses (buildings), outings, paintings, gifts and so on as if next bubba is going to be here any minute.

I've tried the really hot curry...oh yes Dave is just the king of making hot curry...but no.
I've tried the beach walk
I've tried just sitting and thinking
I've tried a bath
I've done all the house work again
I've tried dancing
I've tried being alone
I've tried being with friends
I've been sewing
Lighting Candles
Sex
Acupressure
Chocolate
Baking
Bumpy car rides
I've even tried telling it that it can't come today cause my midwife is busy
I've tried saying you have to come because Dadda has to work soon

SIGH
They will come when they are ready

I have HEAPS of blog posts staking up in my head...oh well one day

Hi came across your blog through Veggie Way. Thought I might get some thoughts that might console me at 3am but am delighted to find a mummy eagerly awaiting a baby. Hope you've had him or her by now. If not have you tried the aubergine and parmesan thingy?

Just popping over to see how you are and wishing you luck :)

Yup, I tried all those things too and LP still hung in there an extra 2 weeks, little monkey. They come when they come, I guess!

Looking forward to reading your news very soon!
