Mothers’ and babies’ brains can work together as a ‘mega-network’ by synchronising brain waves when they interact. The level of connectivity of the brain waves varies according to the mum’s emotional state: when mothers express more positive emotions their brain becomes much more strongly connected with their baby’s brain. This may help the baby to learn and its brain to develop. (1)

Can you not feel my misery?

It is the same as my happiness.

Full of desire.

Mother.

Hold me.

I am here my child.

Why do you cry?

Love will never die.

But we will.

In the face of death…

Mother.

Can you laugh?
