It makes more sense now.

Yes giving requires balance in receiving as one to find balance of being both. Empaths are very giving and sometimes to the neglect of themselves so balance will sneak up to show you. The reflections sometimes show what you are holding within and not allowing to flow in, so listen and take care of you through process. It sounds like your time as a mum and autism as one might require you to take that much more care of you and your baby at this time. Motherhood is a challenge because you are giving to your baby more than self, but you do have to find ways to take care of you. I learned the hard way. So even small steps like a walk in nature while your baby is sleeping, or setting up a quiet space just for you in your home helps too.
