We rushed home to Pennsylvania from Minnesota, and went to the OBGYN to confirm our pregnancy. They ordered a blood test and ultrasound. We heard the baby's heartbeat immediately and the reality of becoming parents became all the more real.
We thought, based on my moon cycle, that we would be about 8 weeks pregnant...but the ultrasound stated that the estimated due date was May 15th and that we were 6 weeks pregnant. After a quick look at a calendar, I realized that this meant we conceived on Sacred Ground at Sacred Stone Camp at Standing Rock Reservation. We honored the sacred space at Sacred Stone, and only had one or two intimate engagements in the privacy of our tent during our two week stay. The day we conceived I already thought I was possibly pregnant. It was right around the Full Moon in August as we camped near the Cannonball River to protect the water from the DAPL. We felt so strongly that we had a Peaceful Warrior coming into our lives. One that would being us lessons, healing, and wisdom for the new consciousness that was transpiring in our world. Are we bringing in an old soul full of warrior wisdom, yet peaceful intentions to lead us into a new way of living? As we looked back at all the signs we had been receiving while at Standing Rock, we realized that it made perfect sense that we conceived there. It was a time of great shift, and it was a realization that the world is shifting into a new reality, and here we were Birthing our own New Reality of Life. The sound of a heart beating inside of you...another little human beginning it's life...I felt overwhelmed with indescribable emotion. I was excited, scared, happy, emotional, and curious for our new life journey.
