Your baby can now hear quite clearly and within days, he will be able to recognize and respond to your voice.
This is a golden opportunity to begin forming an emotional bond with your child before they’re even born.
Speak to your baby in a calm voice. Tell them how much you’re looking forward to meeting them, share your dreams and hopes for their future, and let them know how loved they already are.
Reading a short story or singing a favorite song can deepen your connection and make your voice familiar and comforting.
Also, gently place your hand on mom’s belly when the baby moves, that moment of connection can be deeply emotional for both of you.
Let your baby feel how much you care for their mother, too. Emotional stability starts with the love they sense between their parents.
