Miraculous ability of the fetus

When a fetus is formed, it is immediately ' submerged ' into a world filled with color and sound. That's not to mention the different flavors. Scientists find that babies have the ability of a ' sponge ', which can absorb such diverse information quite easily.

At the time of scientific development, new techniques for studying the environment of the fetus while it was still quietly in the womb, giving or realizing that the fetus was ' learning ' very early when it formed in the womb. .

Since then there is an idiom of ' learning in the womb ', in which the role of the fetal brain and its sensory organs is very important. These structures are heterogeneous, the fetal ' learning ' process is different for each region and part. Sometimes a possibility also takes quite a long time in childhood to really complete.

New discoveries of science about fetal abilities include:

1. Taste : After being formed for about 13 weeks, the scientists found signs that the fetus has developed a sense of taste.

2. Smell : When examining premature babies, it was found that they reacted to the smell of peppermint in the 29th week of the womb. By the 36th week, the fetus had a complete reaction to the smell.

3. Hearing : The part called the cochlea is quite important in the auditory part of the human being, may have been active in the fetus during the 18th week. Other parts of the ear continue to develop until the fifth month.

4. Vision : At about 20 weeks, the heart of the fetus increases a little beats due to a " light bulb " in front of the womb " light up " by the mother. That is the first reaction of the baby's eyesight.

5. Tactile : New in the 7th week, a few places on the body of the fetus proved to be sensitive to some touches. Your whole body will have a tactile reaction in the 13th or 14th week.

Although the mother's womb is a " peaceful nest " for the fetus, it still " listens " to the outside world and always learns new experiences.

The so-called amniotic fluid (AF), the fluid that floats the fetus always helps it identify. The smell molecules absorbed into AF are also perceived and recalled by the fetus. It has been found that newborn babies prefer their own AF rather than any other AF and it also likes the smell and taste of the food its mother used during pregnancy.

The most noisy sound for her in her mother's womb was her mother: the voice, the heartbeat, even the sound of mother's digesting food, she heard it all. Out-of-body sounds can also reach the baby's ears but are deformed.

Tactile and visual difficulties, it can touch the walls of the uterus with the hands and may light some through the membrane of the urinary tract and the fetus sees. But science is not clear how these experiences have been absorbed by the fetus.

Experts say early babies need to be cared for in order to have the same experience as a normal baby. They instructed their parents to gently ' talk ' a lot with their children, make massage for their children gently and stimulate their eyesight. Breastfeeding for premature babies is the best, making it feel the taste of milk, aroma and skin contact with your mother.

It is also found that during pregnancy, the mother changes her appetite regularly to help her children accept more food flavors later.
