Stress and Anxiety can delay infant’s development

A session by *BK Sister Shivani* organised by the *CK Birla Hospital for Women, Gurgaon* for parents-to-be on ‘How to Bond with Your Baby while in the Womb’. 120-130 couples attended the session.
The major factors for rise in stress and anxiety levels among pregnant working women can be attributed to the busy corporate culture, hormonal changes happening in the body, emotional trauma, mood swings etc.
As this may have an impact on the brain development of the infant in the womb, understanding emotional well-being is as important as physical health. With such an aim to assist the pregnant women for healthy delivery and well being, the CK Birla Hospital for Women had organised the third annual spiritual session by Sister Shivani. It is thus important for the parents to cultivate positive thoughts and groom good culture since pregnancy.” Said Sister Shivani.
