The Consciousness of Infants
"Not long ago, experts in pediatrics and psychology were teaching that babies were virtually blind, had no sense of color, couldn't recognize their mothers, and heard in "echoes. They believed babies cared little about sharp changes in temperature at birth and had only a crude sense of smell and taste. Their pain was "not like our pain," their cries not meaningful, their smiles were "gas," and their emotions undeveloped. Worst of all, most professionals believed babies were not equipped with enough brain matter to permit them to remember, learn, or find meaning in their experiences."

Spirituality and Birth Book
My husband and I were honored to contribute some of our experiences and stories as content for this book: The Gift of Giving Life.
Here's a brief synopsis:
The Gift of Giving Life: Rediscovering the Divine Nature of Pregnancy and Birth offers something that no other pregnancy book has before–a spiritual look at pregnancy and birth by and for LDS women and other women of faith. With inspiring birth stories and essays from dozens of real LDS women, scriptures, words of the prophets and other spiritual texts related to pregnancy and birth, The Gift of Giving Life if the essential pregnancy companion for every LDS woman.
The book is scheduled for release in December, but you can preorder your copy today! I'm personally looking forward to getting my own copy.
Update: I just learned that the release date for the book had to be pushed back to Feb 2012. However, there will be a giveaway and you can enter to win a free copy of the book.
