Pregnancy & Fertility-week 3 Of Pregnancy-preventing Spina Bifida With A Visualisation For Your Baby

Posted on March 22, 2008 - Filed Under Home and Family

Pregnancy-Weeks Three and Four

Congratulations! You are pregnant! You are a mum now and your new baby is growing rapidly in your womb. Your baby is engaged in very important work during weeks three and four and you can help him.

In his book ‘A Brain is Born’, Dr. John Upledger explains that at around the 21st day following conception, a neural tube is formed in the embryo.

Initially, this tube does not close completely. Pores are present in the tube until the approximately the 25th day of gestation. The last pores close on the 26th and 27th day following conception. These are located at baby’s (the embryo’s) head and tail.

Spina Bifida Caused At This Stage of Pregnancy

So, much of your baby’s energy is involved in this process of closing the pores in the neural tube now.

Spina Bifida is caused by failure of pore closure in the neural tube.

How To Support Your Baby

So along with enjoying a healthy diet including folic acid (good sources of which include broccoli, brussels sprouts, asparagus, peas, chickpeas and brown rice), you can support your baby around this time by reminding him to close all the pores at the perfect time.

Explain to your baby what is happening in his development and let him know that he can be really healthy. Visualise the tube closing fully and your baby enjoying excellent health and flexibility in his spine and body…now and after birth.

You can also imagine a golden, nourishing light around your baby helping in this process.
