As of today I am a little over 26 weeks pregnant…which is blowing my mind.
I’m actually really enjoying being pregnant and I’ll tell you more about why that is in a few moments.
When I think back to my pre-pregnancy days and especially as I revel in the present (very pregnant) moment I realize that I’m so glad that I put in the effort, energy and devotion to build a sexual relationship with myself over the past 3 1/2 years.
I’m so happy that I kept going when I was afraid, unsure and struggling with my sexuality. Why? Because now I have this solid sexual foundation to build upon, even during pregnancy and eventually when I enter motherhood…which are usually times where most women don’t feel very sexual or sexy, right?
Or rather women are expected to not be sexual anymore. They’re mothers or soon-to-be mothers now. But surely not sexual creatures any longer??!!
I’m not into that idea or belief system. At all.
How do you think I got pregnant, after all? (;
Because I enjoy sex, pleasure and orgasm. Because every day I take the time to connect with my sexual self in some way.
I did this even during my first trimester when I felt like shit…exhausted, nauseous, bloated and uncomfortable. It didn’t look or feel the same way that it does now that I’m nearing the end of my second trimester. I had to be gentler with myself during that fragile time, but I still chose to prioritize my pleasure and sexual relationship.
Usually in very simple ways.
Like taking a bath with epsom salts and rose petals where I could unwind my tight, sore muscles, relax and feel sensually soothed by the warm water as it lapped up against my newly swollen body.
Or getting a few extra hours of sleep so that I could wake up and move into my day from a more slow, sensual space and energy.
Or I would just rub warm oil all over my body and remember that even though I didn’t feel so good right now that it would pass and that I was STILL sexual.
My self pleasure and partnered sex was slower, more gentler on those days where it felt good to allow that.
Something I didn’t realize is that these few years of sexual healing and awakening work have actually been preparing me for this particular life transition. From maiden to erotic mother.
Of course, it wasn’t all about preparing myself for pregnancy. It was about cultivating a relationship with my own sexual self — my erotic, sensual nature and coming home to my pleasure, orgasm and inner ecstasy.
So that when I did transition into a pregnant woman and eventually mother, it would be easier, juicier and more sexually satisfying…in all of its flavors and textures. Even the days where I can’t bother to lift a finger!
It all makes sense now and I’m really enjoying the fertile, juicy, creative and erotic energy of pregnancy. The way my body expands, swells and grows as this baby gestates inside of my womb. The way my breasts are becoming more full, sensitive and heavy, preparing to fill with milk to nourish my newborn.
The way my vagina is more engorged, open and lubricated…making self pleasure and sex that much more orgasmic.
The way my sexual energy circulates through my body because I’ve spent the past few years diligently prioritizing my sexual relationship…including sexual energy work, self pleasure, breast massage and more.
Now certain parts of our society and culture may expect me to drop my sexuality or cut it off once I give birth (or even now during pregnancy), but I’m not falling for it.
In today’s video I’m going to share 5 important reasons why I’m still choosing to self pleasure during pregnancy.
You don’t have to be pregnant to enjoy what I share either, because it’s all holistic and connected, which means whether you are ever pregnant or not, ever a mother or not, you are ALWAYS sexual. Pleasure and ecstasy are ALWAYS your birthright.
As with any life transition, whether it’s pregnancy, birth, motherhood, menopause or anything else that impacts our feminine sexual nature, it’s essential that we remember how sexual we truly are deep down — spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically.
Obviously I have been putting in daily effort, energy and devotion to transform and cultivate the relationship with my sexuality. I share a lot of this in my jade egg ebook and weekly sex tips via email.
