Pregnancy Books

Your baby’s brain is growing at a steady pace even in your womb. By 18 weeks, she is able to hear the heartbeat and external sounds and by 25 weeks, she will be able to recognize and associate with the voice of closed ones, especially your voice. The environment around influences the brain's response to stimuli and hence reading books is one of the most effective ways to bond with your unborn child.
