I have carried 8 children in my womb. 5 lived to be born. I can tell you from personal experience, yes there is spirit and personality before birth. If you know how to listen, you can hear them. Not in words or images, but feelings. I have had two of them tell me what to name them! they are still kinda bossy today.
I will relate one of the most incredible experiences in my life. After two miscarriages, I desperately wanted my third child to live. I was also terrified I'd lose another one, and that my sanity may not hold if I did. Exactly 11 days after conception, I awoke when I felt what I can only describe as a tiny star enter me. A tiny brilliant white spark. And I felt him settle into place. He was laughing, joyful so happy. He filled my soul with light. I asked him what his name was. He said he didn't care what I named him, he was just happy to be here. And we felt so joyous together. He had a perfect, textbook, no stress birth, even though he was 2 weeks early and 10lbs. And he remains my happy, sweet, loving boy today.
Each of my children that made it carried differently, each made their personalities known. If I could not feel their soul, those children I lost. Maybe those bodies were not fit, maybe the souls were not ready to come into this life. I don't know. But I do know the yet to be born dream, and laugh and love and fear. They have souls. They have personalities. They are humans, no matter how small.
