Prenatal Bonding
Prenatal Bonding is a path towards an easier child birth experience. Following the birth, the baby has a remarkable degree of self-esteem and full access to their personal potential.
As a woman’s role changes from the "daughter of her mother" to the "mother of her baby" prenatal bonding creates a healthy separation that more fully supports the expectant mother.
