Carnatic music or stotrams like aditya hridhayam, vishnu / lalitha sahasranamam etc. either you can chant or hear all of them every day in the morning and evening which is really good.

Hello Gayathri,

Recite this mantras/slokas everyday till the day of delivery.

Mathru boodeswaro devo

Hima vathyuththarey parthavey
Surathaa nama yakshini

Visalya karpini paveth

Hey sankara smarahara

// Hello Gayathri,... Recite this mantras/slokas everyday till the day of delivery .... .//

Dear Mr. R

Hats off to you... for your HEALTHY - INTENTION of Helping the Needy...

No doubt it is good for the PREGNANT LADIES to recite this Maathru-Bhoothaeswara Sthuthi ..

But I am sorry to point out... that there are lot of PRONUNCIATION- MISTAKES in your English-Transliteration of this Sanskrit Sthothram...

For Example...

....Mathru boodeswaro devo Bakthanaa mishta thayaka....

... it should be read as....

"Maathru Bhoothaeswaroa Dhaevoa . Bhakthaanaam Ishta Dhaayakaa...."

I believe you know... in Sanskrit... the Phonetics... Pronunciations are very Important. Otherwise the same word will mean different.

So please refer the Moola-paatam and Transliterate it with the help of anybody who knows Sanskrit.... may be even any Sasthri Purohitha

Hello sudhaama,

First of all, I am not Mr!!

Then, it it not my version. Saw in some site, so thought of copying the same, that is all. I did not see the full slokams at all since I chanted this a long time back in tamil; dont remember anything now to correct on my own.

Hope you understand!!

You can also listen to instrumental music like relaxation cds.
Some of them are Piano by Vivaldi, Piano by Mozart etc.
Also there is a music collection called Reflections of Nature.In this series,there are many CDs like Walking in the Woods,Piano by the Sea etc.The sounds of nature like waterfall,sea waves,birds chirping,rustle of leaves on a trail etc are combined with soothing strings giving a peaceful harmonious state of mind.
I used to hear these Cds right from when I was pregnant,and my baby likes the music a lot.whenever I put the music,he stays calm and listens and becomes less fussy.It was also very relaxing for me.These Cds can also be heard during labor pains and delivery to relax your mind,tensions,and your muscles during labor.It is very effective.To buy these,you can go to Amazon.com or any store like Barnes and Nobles.
Some other Cds I found very relaxing are Infinity , Eternity by Real Music,Piano by the Sea,Guitar by the sea,Flute by the Sea.
Some of these CDs are available in Walmart in the section where they keep Kid's music collection.

To know more about music and pregnancy,I reccomend reading Secret Life of the Unborn Child.A very good book every pregnant woman should read.Hope this helps.If u have more qns pls feel free to ask.

// can you tell me the name of the slokam//

That is the MAATHRU- BHOOTHAESWARA STHOTHRAM ... on the Maathru-Bhoothaeswarar Swamy

... alias... THAAYUMAANAVAR Swamy at... Thiruchi ... Malai-Koattai

Where it is available... ???????

Anybody can help you if they know where you are ...

... and... at least... in which Country you are..!!!.

We cannot expect all such rare Religious informations from the Online.

However... I suggest you to try... Bookstalls ... for the Book...

... as well as Tape-Record Stores... for the Audio-tape.

... especially in and around Thiruchi.

Besides... Music does a lot towards the best Advantage of the Pregnant Mother as well as the Baby... right from the Embryo stage itself... as has been Scientifically proved

But please avoid hearing JARRING MUSIC or Heavy-Sounds... including the Jaz, Rock-n-Roll ... type loud Drum-beats.

Even Internationally it has been accepted and medically approved... that the Carnatic Music tunes are the most befitting Sound-waves.

....Preferably Instrumental... Flute, Jala-tharangam, Harmonium, Piano, Violin, Guitar, Mandolin etc.

If you want to have a ... Beautiful ... Calm-natured ...Healthy... Wise... Child...

Then during the Pregnancy.....the Pregnant Mother must be...

... deeply God-devoted... any God ...of any Religion of MOTHER'S Choice and Faith. !!!.

Yes....It is a Proven Fact !!!
