Pregnancy Intuition: A Deep Inner Knowingness About Your Pregnancy, Delivery, Or Baby
Did you KNOW you were pregnant,
even before you were far enough along
to do a pregnancy test?
Perhaps you KNEW the gender of your unborn child, or that you were having twins?
Or maybe you knew that you would be experiencing certain pregnancy complications?
Have you ever known something deep within yourself, even though you didn't have a logical explanation as to how you could know it? If so, you may have been experiencing what many people refer to as inner knowingness or intuition.
What Is Intuition?
Intuition and inner knowingness refer to a sudden insight or a knowingness that comes from deep within oneself. Intuition is often referred to as our sixth sense, as it's a way of gaining information without the use of our physical senses of sight, smell, taste, touch, or hearing. Many people also refer to it as their "gut instinct."
There have been times in my life where I have suddenly become aware of something important, such as that a loved one had been in a car accident, that I was pregnant, that I was heading toward complications during my next pregnancy, and that my four month old baby was in danger, without knowing how I could possibly be aware of this information. The warning or information suddenly popped into my head in the form of a thought. Yet even though it appeared in my head as a thought, there was no doubt in my mind. I KNEW it to be true. This is inner knowingness - or intuition.
Intuition isn't just for really important things though. It can happen to us on a day-to-day basis, about things of any importance, big or small. Intuition can remind us, "Oh, you forgot to turn on the baby monitor in the nursery." It can help you pick out a present for a friend, select what you're preparing for dinner based on the nutrients the baby within you most needs at that moment, decide on a particular doctor or mid-wife, or remember that important presentation for work you're about to leave behind at home.

The Benefits of Using One's Intuition During Pregnancy
Intuition can help us in a variety of ways during pregnancy. 1. It can provide us with information that can help us in our daily lives.
It can let us know we're pregnant even before we've "late," for example. The sooner we know that we're pregnant, the sooner we can start taking better care of our body, eliminating alcohol, eating well, avoiding medications that might harm the baby, etc.
2. Intuition can help us make good decisions.
During pregnancy, we are faced with many choices. We must decide whether to use a doctor or a midwife, and whether to give birth in a hospital, a birthing center, or at home. We must decide if we'd prefer to have a natural childbirth, a medicated childbirth, use hypnosis during labor, etc. We must decide if we prefer to labor in bed, have an underwater birth, use the services of a doula, walk around during labor, sit on a ball or in a tub...
We also must decide things about the baby. If it's a boy, should we have him circumcised? Should we vaccinate? Should we nurse or bottle feed? There are even decisions to make about the things we will buy or things we will do for the baby after he/she is born. Which stroller will be best for our baby? Which types of diapers should we use? Should we play music for our unborn baby to listen to in the womb? Should we teach our baby infant sign language? Which pediatrician should we use?
Sometimes the decisions are easy to make, but other times, even after researching our options, we can feel overwhelmed or just not sure which option would be best. Intuition can help us with all these decisions as well as the many more with which we are faced. The more we use intuition to guide us while making decisions, the stronger our intuitions will grow. Asking for guidance via a sign or a dream are other ways of gaining divine insight about our choices and can be used along with intuition.
3. Intuition can give us sudden insight that helps us solve a problem.
What if you're in labor, but your keys are locked in your car? If we panic during a crisis, it's hard to hear the nudges of Divine Spirit guiding us. Yet if we take the time to relax, trusting that all will work out however it is supposed to, and listen for that inner guidance, oftentimes a wonderful and valid solution will pop into our heads.
4. Intuition can prepare us emotionally for news we are about to hear.
Intuition can help prepare us emotionally for news that might shock us, such as that we are pregnant or having twins. It can also give us advanced notice about upcoming complications with our pregnancies or deliveries. Having a premonition about complications that are about to occur can make the actual experience a little less stressful when it happens.
5. It can alert us to the need to take specific action, before it's too late.
Sometimes our intuition doesn't just prepare us emotionally; it also gives us time to take action to change the course of events. What a blessing that is!
6. Pregnancy intuition can also allow us to communicate with our unborn baby.

How Can We Strengthen Our Intuition?
Intuition is like dreams and spiritual signs in that the more you become aware of it, trust it, and make use of it, the more you experience it.Increasing Awareness
Taking time to write down your moments of intuition when they come to you is a worthwhile pursuit, as it will help you focus more on that ability, and will thus strengthen it. You can record your experiences with intuition in a journal you keep beside your bed or in your purse, or you can create a special "intuition" folder on your computer and save in it emails you send yourself about your moments of intuition. Of course there are many other ways of recording your intuition stories too, so if you'd like to try this tip, select whatever method works best for you.
Increasing Trust
It can be hard to trust our intuitions at times. How do we know it isn't just our ego or our wishes and hopes talking? We don't always know. Learning discrimination is a key part to developing our intuitions. If your intuition seems to be telling you to do something which will hurt someone, or something you know you shouldn't do, it most likely isn't your intuition at all.
Using Our Intuition More
So how do we go about using our intuitions more? Most people find it easiest to start off with little things. Which way should I drive home from work today? What side dishes should I prepare (or order) for dinner tonight? Which line should I get in at the grocery store? When buying a birthday present for a friend, why not select two or three options then ask yourself, "Which gift would my friend most like?" Gradually begin using your intuition to help you make bigger decisions, such as which car to buy. Try to use your intuition to guide you at least once a day.
Three Keys To Relying On Our Intuition
1. Relax.
2. Relax.
3. Did I mention relax? Ok, so I did, but I can't emphasize that enough! When we are stressed, the inner channels tend to close up and no messages can get through to us. Oftentimes, getting our minds off of whatever problem or situation we are trying to solve, and relaxing or thinking about something else for a while, will allow the inner channels to open up and some insight to come in. Try meditating, going for a walk, working in the garden, playing ball with your dog, working a puzzle, taking a warm bath, or anything else which will help you to relax and take your mind off whatever you are trying to figure out so that your intuition can begin to work.

Sharing An Inner Dialogue With One's Unborn Baby
Lisa's story
Some women we've spoken with have described a special type of inner knowingness which allowed them to experience inner communication in the form of a dialogue with their unborn child. One mother, a lady named Lisa, described her prebirth communication with her two sons like this:"Mostly it was an inner knowing...no voices or anything. Occasionally I would see images to accompany the knowing. That was how they communicated with me. When I communicated with them, I would talk to them out loud, as well as have a "daydream" type experience...more along the lines of a visual spiritual exercise."
Lisa had conversations with each of her babies during her pregnancies. After her children were born, she was able to confirm much of what they had told her before their birth.

- Wonderfully written from an intuitive mother's point of view. A great read, and a help to all of us who have had these "knowings" before the fact. We're not bonkers after all. :-)

- This isn't something I can relate to from personal experience (although I've had strong intuition in other areas), but I certainly appreciate an excellent lens. Really well done.

- Love all the little additions, clipart, ect you made to the lens. I find so many people that totally ignore their inner voices, yet depend on other people to make choices for them, instead of listening to their inner selves and choose accordingly. PS if you want the whole story of my comments above shoot me an e-mail and I'll send it to you.
