We all wonder if Will we love this baby when it comes out? – Or will we feel like it’s just a new thing to carry and add to our lives? Today I want to give you some tips to bind the baby both before and after birth, to feel all these feelings of the heart towards your new little person.
Bond with baby before birth:
The best, the best thing to do to connect with the baby is to kick. Now, before we start a lot of people tell you to count the mistake and I’m here to stop this – so grab my Cheat Cheat Cheat leaf here:
As 20 year old work and delivery nurse – I really know what I’m talking about.
But, why can kick measurements can help you connect to the baby? It’s a great question, why some people say it makes them feel anxious – but I’m here to say, Maybe they don’t do it in the right way?
First of all, the Cliff notes It’s that you mark the time, sit there and feel for 10 moves, and then note the time again. Then every day you will look for a pattern. I recommend getting an app that will help you delete them and maybe starting to see a pattern. Most of the time we start counting the kick in about 27 weeks.
And, if you have a million questions – I hope to answer them in this episode:
But, because these simple kicks count to help you bind with the baby. Let me give you three ways.
Map this baby
Do you want to have a window that you could take a look at the baby? The thing is, you do – but it’s the baby’s movement, not a real window (because that would probably be really bad – all the things being considered).
These bigger kicks are probably legs and smaller movements are possible weapons …. heads can move and dig …. You can really understand how it is in your womb and you can be the expert in their movements – but you have to “hear” – and the kick counts it is a great time!
Dream
I think a lot of kick is a time full of stress if the baby will give them the moves but I would say it’s time to close your eyes (and obviously feel for moves) but just dream For life with this baby.
In case you need a few jumping points:
- That First smileHow will you capture your whole heart
- This first time they realize what Christmas is reallyAnd how magical it is.
- Have A favorite baby hangout – how amazing It will be to share it with them…
- Their First few Halloween costumes Where you take the whole word for what it will be and how your heart just explodes as you see them passing around.
And, as a mom who has passed a few squares – the amazing feeling of pride you have in this little person When they graduate from college or high school or just any great achievement. You think the heart explodes with this first smile, but when you see them working so hard for something large – Oh man, insert with crying here.
You will have so much wonderful life together. So you dream, as you count these kicks.
Involvement
It is amazing to feel the kick on your own, but with someone else you love can make it even more amazing:
- Partners
- Other siblings (kids love to help with it – and have to connect with the baby!)
- Mom/friend
It’s really amazing that You are able to produce an entire other face Inside your body. Let’s feel how amazing it is, together.
If you can’t say I’m a huge prosecutor and I think there are so many benefits. Remember that embryo movement is the best indicator of fetal well -being and major changes in fetal movement outside their normal design should take you to your provider.
When fetal measurements are done correctly, they save 33% of mortality – this means that 1 in 3 parents will have a baby with them, except sadness. These statistics make me wildly passionate about it. Do it. 🙂 _
Looking for more information on the number of kicks – be sure to see these posts:
Okay, so I think kick counts are the best ways to connect to the baby – but what can you do right when the baby is out to commit to them? I’m glad you asked …
I want to mention, very quickly, that many of them It made me feel crazy at first. To do this with someone who could not interact or look at me in the eye felt strange – so if you are in this camp, See you – And I promise that this will improve and begin to feel more natural.
Read a book
This was the easiest for me – I was often too tired to think of something I could do with them – but I did some books in my shower and we would look at them together.
Now, children’s books often don’t work great for newborns to look (they still love to hear you talk). Their brand new eyes need high contrast – And as soon as you give them something of a high contrast, you will see some serious attention from them. Think These are cool – But I also had some black and white images that I stayed in my local school supply store and worked well.
This high contrast phase does not last long, but when it is still a bunch of goo – it is your best choice.
Do not feel that you should read the book – -You just can highlight the lion and say “Rar” -just love your voice and learning, and you can give them this!
Really fast, the Kiwi Crate offers a cool infant box that you can find here. You can get toys tailored especially to where your baby is. As a parent who literally had no idea how to “play” with a baby – it would be so useful to me!

Feed them
Power time is a great time to draw their attention, chat and enjoy each other.
I see a lot of people saying that breastfeeding promotes a better connection, but I honestly have no idea why. It was still me there, holding a bottle (above the breasts that would not feed them) – so we were still committed very much as I ate them.
This takes a lot of your day – so it makes sense to make the most of this time.
Of course, any of your other “functional” times will be like that. Changing diapers, putting the clothes – chat with them!
Btw, if you are like – I am weak in these babies tasks, I completely understand it. I recommend it.
Sing to them
Now, you have to get this time when they enjoy your song without sarcastic comments – Get it!
Do you have a favorite pop song? Sing it.
Do you have a favorite kid song? – Sing?
There is no idea what to sing, put some song kids or slulabies on your favorite Player Media and find some you like to sing on them.
It doesn’t have to be complicated, you don’t have to be good at it, but you just smile and dance with them in some melodies will build this bond in a fun way.
And while we are in it – -dream for these dance parties you will have in a few months with your new favorite child. There is a lot to look forward to!
They tell life
This felt the most bizarre but I think it is so important (and later when I was driving to work without I will find them still – and I thought I was crazy).
But in fact, I was just a very good baby/toddler mom.
If you are like – what would I say? You will leave all day. You can get it more than a Morgan Freeman type method, or you can just be like “Arm! This is your hand – we pull it through your sleeve.”
We had walks and I would talk about the crisp leaves, the bright sun, the wind on our face.
I would have dinner telling them about all the ingredients and why I chose this delicious recipe for dinner.
When we changed the clothes, I would tell them what color the shirts were or we would measure the socks. They would like to feel wet clothes and dry clothes….
Do you and your partner đź’‘ Do you want to be more prepared for your upcoming tradition? These are for you!
We would be in the car and say oh gosh there is a firefighter and woah, there is our favorite ice cream place, and now this is the library where we get books ….
Again, you just tell it – and the bonus points, if you make it fun and exciting by changing your voice as you do. They love that!
This best teaching you can do as a mom, and someday your little one will say “Fire Brigade” from this rear seat and you will realize You have taught all this time.
Let me say that we have somehow taught that we need fancy toys or the best tools to teach our children – but let me tell you this:
- Feeling to move your baby
- By telling your life
- Allowing them to experience life with you
Are some of the much better Things you can do both to commit to the baby and to promote learning for them.
Mainly I just want to encourage you to try.
It may make you feel restless or stupid, or maybe it is the freedom you’ve always wanted to be a little foolish with purpose – I think that brought me.
While we are here, I like to be prepared for the baby – but I have to ask that you are preparing (and commitments) with your partner? That’s why I created it. Preparing together is one of the smartest things you can do – because both mom and dad need these skills to help this baby grow up and be the big, powerful, smart influence you want in this world!
