"Nurturing Connection With Your Unborn Baby"
From a scientific point of view, you and your baby are connected because you share the same blood supply and pass nutritional substances and hormones back and forth across the placenta. Feelings happen because of chemical changes in your blood stream. This means that whatever you are feeling, your baby can feel as well.
Making a connection with your unborn baby can strengthen the bond you share, make you feel closer, and enrich you and your baby's lives. Even in the womb the baby can respond. When the mother is frightened or upset, for example, the baby's heart rate can double. Stands to reason then, that when the mother is calm and relaxed, the baby will be, too. All pregnant women get emotionally upset. But if you're chronically upset, this can have an effect on the child's personality. Also, watch how your different emotional states affect the baby's behavior. When you are really upset, how does he/she respond? When you feel peaceful, how do they respond? This will help you to understand how important it is to eliminate stress from your environment during pregnancy, and especially during the birth as well.
According to this research, babies who were stimulated with touch and sound in the womb appeared to be more alert at birth, had better head control and were able to turn their heads in the direction of their parent's voices. Communicating with your unborn baby while pregnant is not just about forming a bond but also about affecting their social and emotional states at birth.
By providing a peaceful environment in which you and your baby can bond before it's born & communicating those feelings of love by taking some time every day and sitting quietly, with your eyes closed, and telling your baby how welcome it is in your life.
Please get a small journal or blank book, and begin to write in it as often as possible. Write in it as if you are talking to the baby. Not only will this help you bond with your baby, but it is a nice momento for later on, and you can give it to the child when they are old enough. Talk to the baby about how much you love them, what your concerns are about the birth, ask the baby questions about him/herself, or ask the baby to do something you need them to do, such as turn to a different position. This will be a wonderful record of the developing relationship with your new child.
Talk to the baby. Say goodnight before you go to bed, good morning when you wake up, and talk to it throughout the day. New borns know their mom's voice after birth. That's the voice they will turn to.
Place your hands on your abdomen and rest your hands quietly, feeling the baby kick, or gently massaging the baby. You can even play games with the baby. Press lightly on your abdomen and you'll feel the baby kick back. It's worth taking a few minutes every day to relax and just visualise yourself holding your new baby. Imagine what he or she might look like and what you might say to them.
Establish a deeper level of communication – through relaxation, visualization, meditation, guided imagery, journal writing, dream work, music, partner dialogue, affirmations, stimulation, verbal stimulation, free drawing, rhythmic breathing and any other creative way you can think of.
• Touch – massaging, stroking
• Sound – talking, singing, music

A prenatal enrichment approach includes stimulating the baby in utero through singing, reading and talking, all of which are believed to enhance a baby's intellectual development.
Reading to a baby in the womb may have a positive effect on fetal development. The developing fetus whose mother enjoys reading aloud during pregnancy likely benefits more from her sense of calm and well-being than from the actual words themselves. Reading to the baby in utero may help a woman to practice bonding behaviors. When a woman reads aloud to her baby in utero, she may relate to him or her more actively and directly while doing so. It is believed that a baby does learn to recognize his mother's voice prenatally.
Talking to the baby, whether through reading or speaking aloud, helps to create a sense of the baby as he or she will be after birth.
An effective way to introduce your baby to the outside world is by giving your bump a regular, gentle massage while pregnant. Babies will often respond to your touch by kicking the place you just massaged or by changing positions.
