Singing during labour

I remember singing during my labour with my second baby...i was so calm being alone in my bathtub, singing and rocking back and forth. Having nurses and doctors present while in a hospital enviroment doesn't make a woman want to start singing...and sometimes even having your husband or doula present can damper the freedom you would've had if you were completely alone. I encourage women to take time alone during their labours so they can have some time without feeling like they're being watched, its amazing what time alone can do to ease pain and anxiety.

Waldorf babies

Here is a great article on parenting babies Waldorf style.
A friend of mine sends her children to a Waldorf school on the Island, she always has these really inspiring stories of nature festivals and how her children are learning all about the natural rhythms of life, and celebrating them!

What are the rhythms that you celebrate?

Here is another great link exploring the different festivals that are celebrated in the Waldorf communities.
