5605. odino, o-dee'-no; from G5604; to experience the pains of 
parturition (lit. or fig.):--travail in (birth).

(Gal 4:19 KJV)  My little children, of whom I travail in birth again 
until Christ be formed in you,

Does this refer to gestation - the nine months a baby is in it's mother's 
womb?

How does it relate to
5040. teknion, tek-nee'-on; dimin. of G5043; an infant, i.e. (plur. fig.) 
darlings (Christian converts):--little children.

Is he saying something like - My infants, I have to incubate you again? 

Best,
Thomas
