As your baby grows, you will begin to feel their movements—little kicks, rolls, and stretches. These movements are a reminder of the life developing within you, and they offer another opportunity to connect with your baby as well as your body. Take time to notice when your baby is most active. How does it feel when they move? Does your baby respond to certain activities, like eating or resting? This is a very intimate way to bond with your baby.

By tuning into your baby’s movements, you can deepen your connection with them.  This awareness can also help you recognize patterns that are unique to your pregnancy, giving you a greater sense of confidence and calm, as you begin to understand your baby’s personality.
