THE IMPORTANCE OF PRENATAL STIMULATION

Popularly it is known that the gestation period is the time during which all the major body organs and systems of the fetus are forming. However, it is also the phase where all the senses are developed, babies are affected by emotions around them. Prenatal stimulation is a process that encourages learning in unborn babies optimizing mental and sensory development through specific techniques. Implementing these exercises will be vital for the full growth of the child.

In the mother’s womb it is growing a child who cannot yet see, but not isolated from the outside world. Conversely, child attempts to interact in various ways using the senses. From the second quarter, babies are receptive to what happens outside the breast cavity; her touch, her hearing, sight and even taste are alert, generating electrical impulses in the body.

Besides this, the emotional disturbances are captured easier, especially those of the mother. Depression, extreme happiness, stress, calm and love are perceived by the developing fetus.

The results of sensory interactions and absorption of emotions are records that are stored directly in neurons. These neurons must pass through a natural process of self-destruction, however, the internal action can be reduced. To nerve cells is important the relation with the other, otherwise, they can go into desolation mode. When the senses and emotions are stimulated in the baby, electrical reactions that contribute to complete union of the nervous system are generated, decreasing its devastation.

It’s possible to enhance the development of the child’s brain before birth, so they can maximize their potential to a higher level. Valuable research has shown that stimuli such as stroking the fetus through the belly, soft and melodious sounds, the sound of the human voice, especially the mother’s, as well as light and vibrations are pleasurable to the baby. Prenatal stimulated babies tend to exhibit enhanced visual, auditory, and motor development. They also show superior learning capacity and higher IQs

From the fourth month of pregnancy, you can use flashlight with soft light. The photons of light to the fetus via the mother’s abdominal wall stimulated retinal ocular, following the pathway through the optic nerve to the brain cortex, which will allow the baby in infancy better visual discrimination, and better guidance and direction. Also, exposing the belly to the light of the first sunlight has stimulating effects, coupled with this, provides nutrients and vitamins.

Technique of hearing is one of the most important because this sense is formed rapidly so we should interact early with it. Hearing is one of the ways that connects the baby to the outside world and in turn is one of the most can be stimulated because the hearing aid baby develops at approximately 14 weeks of pregnancy, and then begins to capture the external and internal sounds. The sensations produced by music will be recorded in the future baby, once born forward it to that pleasant state that lived during her pregnancy.

The way parents interact with their babies even before they are born has an impact on the development of the child later in life. A confident person trusts themselves because he/she knows that they have been loved since they were conceived. A child that is optimistic, confident and with a good demeanor can be the end result that occurs when the uterus is transformed to a warm and enriched surrounding. Communicating with the unborn child provides the stable, supportive environment that every child needs in order to learn and grow healthily.
