Breastfeeding helps mom and baby bond, starting when baby is a fetus inside the womb
Developing senses inside the womb
A fetus’s senses start to develop in the womb in preparation for brain development and growth. We know through ultrasound that a baby experiences the sense of touch in-utero long before he/she is born. When a pregnant mom rubs her belly, her fetus can feel the vibration.
