Im going anonymous for this post because theres a lot of women who shame other women for simply asking. I will be having my first baby in June. On all the apps and websites and even family memebers say its good to talk to the baby and play music and stuff because it helps their develpment and it creates a connection between the baby and mother. With all this said, ive tried talking to my baby but i feel so awkward doing it and i havent really done it much at all. Will this affect the baby and our connection? Im 24w6d and i know its when the baby already recognizes sounds and voices. How did you all feel while talking to your belly? I need advice on how to get over the awkwardness because idont wanna miss out on anything
