ISRAELsimply Is Ra El (Elohim)? Aries (lamb) Why woman have birth pains? Interesting.
The creation of God may have gone thru labor too. Will be back....

Hi All: I just wanted to add my own personal feelings to the "why pain with childbirth" question. I had my first (and only) child (Mira) when I was 34 (37 now) I was in labor for a long time and I thought I was going to lose my mind from the pain. I ended up having a c-section (finally) and I felt very strong (mentally) afterwards. I believe the strength I felt helped me to prepare for the hard work ahead. I have never before, nor since had my endurance tested like that. I am grateful now for the experience. Not just because my daughter was the end result, but because I felt very proud of my ability to hold on to my sanity when I felt on the edge of losing it. I don't know if this makes sense, but I wanted to put it out there. Even though I hardly ever post, I read these threads all the time (yes, I'm one of those) so please tolerate my two cents. ------------------ shannon IP: Logged |

Shannon, I do want to read what you think. I am sure others too. Your response reminded me of my own sister. She went thru 2 hours of labor and when she beheld her daughter, tears rolled down her eyes. I could never forget this first birth of a child in my close family.

Insightful words, Shannon! And it makes total sense to me. Experiences have to happen in our lives in order for ous to learn to appreciate life more; it's contrast. Furthemore, I believe our journey and the motions of life makes us stonger, and at one point in our lives, we learn to treasure them. We are stronger than we think and wiser than we know!
