Being able to bond with your unborn child during pregnancy is one of the most amazing aspects of it. Your baby can begin to hear and distinguish between voices during the final trimester of pregnancy.
The voice the newborn hears initially is that of the expectant mother. Knowing their mother’s voice while still inside the womb aids the infant in recognising and bonding with her after birth. The fact that the baby is familiar with mommy’s voice might be comforting.
According to the Fertility Center of Las Vegas here is why talking to your baby plays a crucial role in their development.
Talking to your unborn child while you’re pregnant will reassure him or her and reduce any stress the child may be experiencing while being in the womb.
Additionally, it can aid in the development of speech and language. The unborn child might begin to comprehend and recall words while listening to voices in utero. They occasionally even have the ability to distinguish between different languages.
Parents can also benefit from talking to their unborn child. It can be a moment for family bonding and provide the newborn a chance to hear the voice of a second parent.
Talking to their unborn child while it is still inside the womb is crucial for parents who are utilising a gestational carrier (surrogate) to carry the pregnancy. With the use of recorded spoken sounds and headphones, this is possible anywhere in the globe thanks to modern technology.
Here is how you can interact with your unborn child
- Sing lullabies or your favourite song
- Read the newspaper or kids books out loud
- Talk to the baby when you’re alone and bored
- Talk to the baby while you’re walking around the store picking out groceries
For infant bonding time, try some of these out and do whatever makes you feel comfortable.
