How Are You Connecting with your Unborn/Newborn?

[jjhughes]

Hi dads,
I'm a graduate student at Indiana University and I'm doing a project on designing technology that can help fathers feel more connected to their unborn (and newborn) child. Women have the advantage of having the connection of the child growing inside them, what do you do to help connect? I thought what better way to get research on this than asking real people?

If you can answer any of the questions below, it would be a great help.

-What did you do/are doing to help make a connection between you and your child? (both born and unborn)


-What do you wish you could do, but don't have the means?


You may also respond if you have any other opinions or thoughts on the topic. Anything can be helpful! You might also help other expecting fathers learn new tips!


Thanks! And let me know if you have any questions.[SIZE=7][SIZE=7][SIZE=7]

It is true that a mother is more connected to a unborn through cords, but a father can also feel the presence of unborn, by touching the stomach of expecting mom to know as how the unborn is moving inside or their postural changes, as these are the best time when a father can feel that a part of him is growing inside his wife.
