TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. Many changes in the physical conditions of the body since last we had same here. Those forces in which the life is dependent upon the body show for a normal, nominal development, and we would keep the manipulations and the general treatments for the carrying of such conditions, such developments, through those periods especially necessary for a normal development; and if the ideals and the desires of both individuals responsible for this life existent in this body will be kept, there will be in the proper time, proper period, a normal and nominal delivery of that body as HAS been desired, and the sex will BE that as has been desired by each.
2. The nausea that occurs is a normal condition and should not be attempted to be handled with or by TAKING of conditions or properties that would interfere with the normal nervous system.
3. Rather be mindful of the activities, the quality or quantity of waters as are taken, and the manner in which the diets are followed to keep a NORMAL amount of calcium, chlorines, iodines, and such as will keep a normalcy - not only for the mother body but of the body developing also. These will then bring about a normal condition as to this respect, as WELL as for the developing body itself.
4. Be mindful that the kidneys are kept normal, and that there is not TOO much standing on feet - but walking is the best exercise, though do not overdo same, ESPECIALLY not overdoing same in running up or running down flights of stairs, in LIFTING things nor in pushing things about with body, with arms, or with limbs - see? Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Is body eating correctly for benefit of child?
   (A) Very good, but we would add more of those that will keep calcium and the iodines and chlorines - calcium chlorines - for the system, see? so that the BONE structure will be builded properly.
6. (Q) Outline treatments from now until September.
   (A) Treatments as have been and are being outlined for the conditions, being such as of a developing body of a condition, those through the osteopathic forces - as we find both through confinement and through the care of same to that period of confinement would be the better for the body; making for all conditions that would be of a nearer normal reaction.
7. (Q) At which hospital would it be best to have child, Staten Island Hospital or Philadelphia?
   (A) In the OSTEOPATHIC hospital - Philadelphia.
8. (Q) How much exercise should body have per day?
   (A) Not overtiring the body, as has been suggested, but that which will be sufficient to keep a near normal flow of the circulation, both as related to nerves and to blood supply.
9. (Q) What causes pain in lower spine near right hip?
   (A) This is an area, or the area from which many of those conditions radiated which prevented those formations of the proper conditions for conception, and is natural that - AS the body IS developing - those PORTIONS of system, that have long been under strain, are ASSUMING or taking on natural conditions, and it is as of STRETCHING that which has been LONG contracted. Keeping the general treatments (not too MUCH, to be sure) will make for a nearer normalcy. Hence that as has been outlined, for osteopathic treatments TO the time and through delivery.
10. (Q) Please state sex of child.
    (A) As has been given. That as has been builded, as has been desired, held, by both.
11. That is all the questions regarding this body.
12. We are through for the present.
