Garbh samvad · 5 minutes a day

Garbh samvad for the first trimester

Your baby is tiny and you may be tired. Keep it short and loving — the habit matters more than the words.

Steps

  1. Settle. Sit or lie comfortably, place a hand on your belly and take five slow breaths.
  2. Greet. Say good morning or good night to your baby, using a pet name if you have one.
  3. Share. Tell your baby one good thing about today.
  4. Bless. End with a short wish or blessing.

Words you can say

  • “Hello, little one. I am your mother, and I am so glad you are here.”
  • “Today I saw the sunrise — one day I'll show it to you.”
  • “नन्हे, तुम सुरक्षित हो, तुम प्यारे हो।”
  • “May you grow healthy, calm and happy.”
