Already in Gokarna in India I was told from a Midwife that the best hospital in Berlin is called Havelhoehe. I didn't know this hospital and place but I called them and ask to save my place for birth. Also I was a little concerned about that I couldn't find a midwife in Berlin. Even I didn't know where to stay. I called many people, even my family couldn't help me. Many problems I had to face. I felt very lonely. With Hari I had a lot of fights too and a difficult time, because many people tried to come in our way and make our life difficult. Somehow we managed everything and the last 2 batches in Gokarna of the YTTC where so great. We got new volunteers and teacher. We are surrounded by many lovely people, that helped me a lot. Hari and me worked from morning to night. It was a tough time. Again Jay saved me and told I can stay with him. What an angel he is, unbelievable. I am very much blessed to have him still as a good friend! ...So much... I could now go to Berlin back. Third of April I was flying than from India to Berlin and I went to this Havelhoehe hospital, which was quite far away from Friedrichshain - Lichtenberg, where Jay and me stayed. But still I was feeling the blessings again. Wow, it was the place where the Yoga festival was. Here my new life had begun. In this place Yoga became part of my life. I met here many people who influenced my life, like Swami Muktanand Puri. He thought me first time about Bhagavad Gita and Samkhya Philosophy. Definitely it was the right place to get my child. Also the nature, the forest and river are such a beautiful surrounding. On July 16th my beloved Mia Kumari Pawali was born. We needed 4 days to find a name. It was very difficult to wait so long for me. The astrologer from Hari had to tell the letter for the name. Than finally he told "M" ... Haha, anyway I had the name Mia already in my mind. :) Perfect! :) Morning 5AM i begun to feel some pain, similar to menstruation pain. I couldn't sleep then anymore and at 8AM I wrote the time of the contractions which became more and more intense. I called the hospital and they told me that the constructions have to become stabil and all 5-10 min for at least 1-2 min long. Around 12 PM I thought the pain is enough and contractions become stabil, so we called the taxi to the hospital.1 Pm we reached the hospital and they checked me and told I have to wait. So we thought we go and eat something. During the lunch the pain became so much and we finished fast and went slowly back. I had to stop very often because of the contraction pain. 2 Pm I could go inside the birth room (Kreissaal) and I decided to try a water birth. After 1 hour of pressing contraction I had to go out and lay down. That was so painful. I had to press very much. 4:45PM Mia came with a big last screaming of mine and I was so happy I had a natural birth. She even began instantly to suck on my breast to drink. Such a clever child. The days went fast in the hospital and I learned how to be a mother. :) Mimi, my good friend who I know from SVYASA came also when Mia was born. She helped me a lot and brought her and me home. Hari came in June and I moved from Jay's home to Lichterfelde, in a Airbnb apartment. That was our home until August. Jay had to leave from middle of August to middle of september his flat to go to india, so he gave it to us. Again very very nice. I hope I can do something for him in future... Now we are lucky and got our Birth Certificate at the right time to get Passport and Visa. All this work is done. Now Hari has to become Indian citizen, that Mia can get OCI Card imediatly and me too after 2 years... We had to pay 260 Euro for 1 year Indian Visa. Here are some photos of our small family... Much of Love, Stefanie
