Postcards from the Bump: A Chick’s Guide to Getting to Know the Baby in Your Belly

A book that looks at pregnancy in a revolutionary and unconventional way—from the inside out.

New York Times bestselling authors Ame Mahler Beanland & Emily Miles Terry believe that pregnancy is not a burden to wait out, a bun to bake, or a lullaby to practice—it’s an opportunity for pregnant women to bond with their baby long before the birth.

Backed by scientific studies which prove babies know what’s going on in utero—they can hear, feel, remember, and experience emotions before they are born—Beanland and Terry present powerful stories alongside fascinating scientific tidbits (babies absorb more than just nutrients: they even begin to learn their native language!) that will help a woman bond with her baby as soon as her pregnancy test is positive.
