Live Action’s newest video, Along for the Ride, highlights the life of a child inside the womb and the unique and special place she holds in her parents’ lives from the moment of fertilization.<\/p>\n

The video follows a young couple throughout their days \u2014 walking on the pier and Christmas shopping \u2014 as they unknowingly spend those moments with their newly created baby. Though they are unaware of their baby’s presence, she is growing and living right alongside them. As the mother experiences the first indications that she is pregnant while the couple is ice skating, she catches her breath and her baby’s heart is shown steadily beating. Their two distinct lives are intertwined from the beginning \u2014 two heartbeats, two lives, living in sync with each other.<\/p>\n

\u201cPregnancy is a truly magical time for a family,” said<\/a> Lila Rose, Live Action Founder and President. “I remember carrying my little boys during pregnancy and the way I wished I could see them as we experienced the world together.\u00a0\u00a0Along for the Ride\u00a0<\/i>gives families the opportunity to do just that. This joyful and exceptional showcase of a family welcoming their child into the world will capture the hearts of millions. We have developed state-of-the-art, medically-accurate animations to share each milestone a baby achieves through his or her journey in the womb. Through this story, everyone can see the true humanity of the child and catch a glimpse of his reactions to the new world around him.\u201d<\/p>\n

At six weeks<\/a>, about the time a woman first learns she is pregnant, her baby’s heartbeat can finally be detected by doctors, but it has been beating since about 21 days after fertilization. By seven weeks, her baby’s heart has four chambers and has nearly completed its development.<\/p>\n

On Christmas morning, the new mother gifts her husband with baby shoes, and together they experience the joys and emotions of knowing that they are now parents. As they embrace, their baby touches her small hands and fingers together.<\/p>\n
