Hypnobirthing: A mother's conversation with her unborn child

In Hypnobirthing we learn to bond with our babies while they are still in the womb. Here is something that I have taken from the book which can be read aloud by an expecting mother to her precious baby, to assure it that it is loved and already has a place in this world.
