Whether you are the birthing parent or co-parent, your relationship with your baby begins before birth. Did you know that babies can hear in the womb and be sensitive to bright lights at around 16 weeks? By around 25 weeks of pregnancy, your baby may be moving around to music and responding to touch.
Some parents-to-be find it hard to imagine their baby. This may be due to feeling anxious or because their own experience of being parented was difficult.
Bonding takes time – so don’t feel guilty if you don’t feel that rush of love straight away.
