Are you ready to be a father or mother?

“Papa mama” held an event that you could experience being pregnant before it became a reality. Also, you could learn and chat with people who have the same situation. Surprisingly, a system of experiencing pregnancy, Mommy Tummy makes it possible to go through the long period of pregnancy for just 2 minutes.

Late in the event, a family, Chika, Kimi, and Rintaro shared stories about their childbirth and raising a kid. Kimi said,

I’ve had someone very special, Rintaro whom I never want to lose. That is wonderful!

Organizer of the event, Pirominko says,

I decided to start “papamama” only because of my yearning to pregnant women, so I couldn’t imagine my marriage and childbirth at first. Since I heard many impressive episodes from various families, now my mind is made up. I am prepared to be mom.

Everyone is filled with as much anxiety as hope of having a baby. Why don’t you experience pregnancy “before being a father and mother”? You may feel the preciousness of life and dream to have a baby without your worries.
