Pregnancy

At bellybutton, we offer Mother Blessing ceremonies. A Mother Blessing is a nurturing ceremony focused on supporting the expectant mother emotionally, spiritually, and physically as she prepares for childbirth and the arrival of her baby. This special occasion is filled with rituals, blessings, and shared intentions from loved ones, creating a positive and empowering atmosphere. It differs from a traditional baby shower by emphasizing the spiritual and emotional aspects of pregnancy, fostering a sense of community and offering encouragement to the mother-to-be. It’s a meaningful way to surround her with love, strength, and positive energy during this transformative time.
