Would you please explain, when the soul enters the body of the babby? I know the sould departs when the last breath is drawn. Is it possiable the soul enters the baby when it is about to draw it's first breath. Is it also posiable that babby is kept alive in the first 9 months by the mother's soul?

When the baby is in the womb of the mother, the soul will not enter until 120 days after conception. This is a special day at about the 4th month of pregnancy. This 120th day is the day after which, a woman and her family, will let it be known that she is pregnant. We celebrate the soul's entry and welcome this soul by having a special kirtan to honor the mother during her pregnancy.
