For you Mama to Read to your Baby Bump (and Yourself)
A sweet rhyme to bond with your unborn baby,
with encouraging words for you
This rhyme has heart! I love how it feels like I'm chatting with baby with words that are filled with love and mean something. I beam when I read this book to my baby bump.
This heartfelt rhyme is written for you to bond with your baby throughout your pregnancy by reading to them as if you're having a sweet conversation about love and life - about things now while they are in the womb, as well as in the future once they are out in the world.
Reading to baby in the womb is a great way for you to bond, creating a sense of calm and connection for both you and baby. The tones and flow of words when reading aloud; especially rhymes, are different to usual speech in conversations, and are a lot more calming. Reading rhymes to baby in utero helps familiarize them with these calming tones of your voice, that can carry on after they are born with a positive association between reading and feeling calm, helping to foster a love of reading together.
This is the perfect book to read to your unborn baby because it was created for both YOU and Baby.
What a beautiful way to bond with bubba in utero while helping to prepare mama for the transition into motherhood at the same time. So good!
This rhyme is for you mama, as much as it is for you to connect with your baby. Transitioning into motherhood - matrescence - is a major adjustment for women physically, psychologically and emotionally, yet it is something rarely spoken about. This real-talk rhyme also acts as an encouraging love letter for you to read to yourself and provides support and validation for your mama-to-be experience, as well as tips gently woven through to help you on your motherhood journey - to help you and your new little family thrive.
I love that there's pregnancy journal pages... I know I'll love looking back at these reflections one day. And I loved writing the letters too! So precious!
At the back of this book you'll find pregnancy journal pages and pages to write letters to yourself, your baby & your partner which are perfect to capture your memories of this season.
It’s Mama here,
my little one.
I am the oven
to you, my bun.
I carry you around
with me each day,
but this is not where
you will always stay…

High contrast black & white pictures
Fun black and white pictures have been included so you can continue enjoying reading this book to bub once they are on the outside, by simply changing the tense of some words in places to past and present as necessary.
For the first 3 months baby sees everything as black, white & shades of grey. The world is generally one big blur for newborns, so anything high-contrast is MESMERISING. High-contrast pictures help attract bub’s attention and develop their focus - read all about the benefits for baby.
This has been the best book to read to my baby before birth. There's even the bonus of free online resources to help new mamas thrive. Wow! So much love has gone into this book and online goodies! Thank you!

There's so much to process on top of the responsibility of raising a tiny human, all while no longer sleeping.
