4 Ways to Feel Your Spirit Baby (Even When You’re Not Sure It’s Real)

September 30, 2026

You didn’t imagine that dream, or the chill that ran through your body, or the feather that fell at your feet after you whispered, “Are you here?” Your spirit baby has been speaking to you, and this is how to recognize it.


1. Feel your desire as a two-way signal.

That longing you feel to meet your spirit baby, that deep ache to know, connect, and receive, it’s not just yours, it’s theirs too. The soul of your baby doesn’t just arrive; they prepare you by calling your heart open. That restlessness, that reaching, that feeling of something unfinished even when nothing in your life is technically wrong, that’s them. You wouldn’t feel this if it wasn’t mutual.

So the first thing I want you to try is a reframe. Instead of “I want a baby,” try: We want to meet. Instead of “I wish I could feel them,” try: I am feeling them.

Notice what shifts when you read those. That subtle opening in your chest, that small release of breath, is your nervous system recognizing something true.


2. Listen to what your body is already picking up.

Most women who come to me aren’t sure they’re receiving anything, and then within minutes of sitting together, they tell me five things they’ve been quietly noticing and dismissing: a sensation in the womb that comes and goes, a presence in the room they can’t explain, a knowing that arrives without evidence and won’t quite leave.

“I feel a presence, like someone’s near.”
“I have a sensation in my womb.”
“I just know something… but I’m not sure how.”

This is claircognizance. It isn’t loud and doesn’t announce itself with loud proof. It’s just clear, and it lives in your body. Your womb is their doorway, your heart is their home, and your desire is their signal to come closer. You’re not making it up; you’re receiving, and you’ve been doing it longer than you realize.

Crystal said it simply after our session: “This brought me back into trust, I was spiraling before.” That spiral, the second-guessing, the grasping for proof, is usually what’s in the way, not the connection itself.


3. Try this simple practice right now.

You don’t need a ceremony or a special space or the perfect quiet moment, just a few minutes and your own hands.

Close your eyes and put both hands on your womb. Breathe slowly until you feel your belly soften under your palms. Ask silently: Are you near?

Then listen without forcing. Don’t reach for something dramatic. Just notice a warmth, a color, a word, a feeling that wasn’t there before. Even receiving just one small piece of information is real and counts; start there and trust it.

Soleil came into a session not sure any of this would work for her. She told me afterward: “I wasn’t sure I’d be able to connect to them in this way, but it totally worked!” That’s what I see over and over, the doubt doesn’t mean the door is closed, it just means you haven’t opened it yet. You haven’t fully allowed it in. 

The channel between you and your spirit baby grows stronger the more you acknowledge what’s already coming through. Every time you say “I felt that” instead of “I probably imagined that,” you widen the opening.


4. Trust that you’re more connected than you think.

Most of the doubt women carry into this work isn’t about whether their spirit baby is real. It’s about whether they themselves are reliable enough to receive, whether their intuition can be trusted, whether they’re the kind of person this works for.

Phoebe said something after our session that I keep coming back to: “Our session completely reshaped one of my fears about having a baby and cultivated a new sense of trust in the process.” That reshaping is available to you too.

You are the kind of person this works for, and the fact that you’re here, reading this, already feeling the pull, is its own kind of answer.

Keep listening. Keep softening. Believe me… you’re better at connecting than you know.

You're in the right place if you're trying to conceive naturally or with medical support, navigating pregnancy loss, already pregnant and wanting a deeper connection, questioning whether you want children at all, or simply feeling a pull toward a soul you can't yet explain.

is a spirit baby session for you?

I've been supporting women and couples in connecting to their spirit babies since 2021.

So you can be in true partnership with your spirit baby and feel them as you walk into the mystery of creating, sustaining, and birthing new life.

I teach you how to hold your desires with open hands, like a dandelion poof held gently so it doesn't break.  So that spirit can get in and the universe can support you.
