Last June, I asked for thoughts on what made staying home with a baby difficult for so many women and what might make it a little easier. Rina, a self-proclaimed non-baby person, AND mother of five (you see, there’s hope!), of Rina’s Reflections, started out writing a comment on that post and wound up writing a post of her own, called Bonding With Babies, in which she shares some extremely thought provoking information she has learned about how we can work with the natural hormonal processes God has created to accompany pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding in order to make it easier to enjoy our tiniest blessings. There’s a lot in our modern culture that has short-circuited the natural processes God set up. But the more we understand our amazing and miraculous bodies, the better we can work with them to reap the benefits of God’s design. Truly, we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14)! If you’re pregnant, hoping to have more children in the future, or in a position of giving counsel to ladies who are, you’ll want to seriously consider the information Rina shares.

Hi! I went over to Rina’s blog. I think she will be a great encouragement to moms. It’s amazing how God’s provision for oxytocin helps us do what we need to do! It’s just another one of his miracles. I have one question: is there a hormone that helps us bond with our teenagers???
P.S. Since I’m such an airhead about everything you are smart about, I took a look around at my chapel on Sunday… just to see if there was anyone who dressed immodestly. Can you believe it? No one was immodest! I guess I just breathed a sigh of thankfulness for the graciousness of these sisters, and I never appreciated it until now.
I just wanted to let you know that the name of my blog has changed. I checked the link from “rinasreflections” and it does redirect to the other domain name, however, so you shouldn’t have to change anything on this post. I just wanted to let you know “in case.” Thank you again for your kind words and your referral.
