| This project is based in one simple idea: what if it is really true that everyone carries an imprint from the womb, even from their earliest days as a tiny embryo? If so, what then? Let’s apply some logical reasoning. - If we all carry this imprint then every embryo is capable of awareness.
- If every embryo can be aware with his tiny, primitive brain, he may also have a rudimentary memory.
- If he is capable of memory, then some vague, primitive impressions of the womb may remain in his mind for the rest of his life, like a forgotten dream - the Dream of the Womb.

Vanishing twins
The loss of one twin in the womb, leaving a lone survivor (a wombtwin survivor) is familiar to doctors and midwives, but few people realised just how common it is. By the end of the 1970s the development of ultrasound technology had opened a window directly into the womb, and it was not long before doctors began to notice that occasionally, when they had seen two developing babies at one ultrasound scanning session, there was only one at the next session a few weeks later. By 1980 the term “vanishing twins” had been coined to describe this phenomenon. Althea Hayton believes that wombtwin survivors carry an imprint of their twin throughout their lives. There are three books related to this project: |
