Telepathy and Intuition.
We were new, first-time, parents. We did our fair share of contributing to the consumer world of “baby”. We measured those scoops of formula perfectly. Made sure the temperature of the milk was just right. This also meant that for the first few weeks at home, we both got up when she cried. Both of us reacted…what’s wrong? Is she hungry? Is she cold? Does she need to be changed? What can we do? What can we change?
It was non-stop. As every new parent can attest to. It’s in our DNA to do this when we hear our baby cry. Fix it. Fix it now.
Well, on this one occasion about 4 months into Teal’s life, I knew something very odd.
Let me set the stage…it’s end of October. We were remodeling our house (which was supposed to be done before Teal came into this world) and were living in a very small condo. Teal was content by the fire. It was warm and cozy in our home. Out of the blue, Teal started fussing and then she started crying. Alex was holding her with a bewildered look. Like…where is this coming from? All normal things had been checked off the list…hungry? No. Dirty? No. Cold? No, etc. You get the point.
Then it happened…this weird knowing came over me and I said to Alex, “Put a hat on her.” Now, we were in the house. It was warm. This statement did not make sense AT ALL. Put a hat on her? What? Alex looked at me with a very, very strange expression.
I said it again, “Put a hat on her. I don’t know why, but she wants a hat.”
So, Alex puts a hat on her and she immediately stops crying. Immediately. Both of us were quite stunned.
Well, here’s the most important part of this entire story. That specific day in October was the very 1st time my daughter communicated with me telepathically. She told me she wanted a hat. She sent me that message…and thankfully, I received it.
You see, what I could have said here is that it was all Mama’s Intuition. It was all me. It was all the intuitive instinct that comes with motherhood. And, I do believe in a mother’s intuition. I believe it. I have experienced it. I use it regularly. But, the part people leave out of the story is that the message comes from somewhere.
Teal sent me the message. She was an active part of my knowing that day. It was NOT ALL ME. It was a 2-way communication. She sent the message and I received it. And then I acted…thank goodness.
So, the next time you get a knowing and you think it’s all just your intuition. Take a moment to give credit to the sender. And sometimes that sender is a tiny 6 lb, 4 month old magical preemie child whom will forever change your life.
And, give credit where credit is due!
With love,

PS: if you feel like you are intuitive (because everyone is), let me know. I have a mini-course for you to help bring more of your intuition to the surface.
