Garbh Sanskar:Baby’s Brain

Bright Child:Bright Future:Raise Smart Kid

The foundation of your baby’s intelligence is being built while he is still a fetus.  This stage of your baby’s life is very critical because this is where the raw materials of his intelligence and personality are being formed.  Fetal brain development has long lasting effect on your baby’s personality.

As a mother to be, one of your biggest concerns is to make sure your fetus in the womb grows healthily and normally. One of your worries is whether you are providing him with all the nutrition he needs for the best brain development. Since what you eat directly affects your baby's development as a fetus, you can give a good start by carefully watching your diet and supplementing when needed.

The formation of neurons(neuron means:the basic cell making up the brain and nervous system, which receives electrical impulses from other neurons and sends out those impulses through networks of connections) begins very early in the human embryo.  By five weeks after conception, the cells in the developing brain begin dividing rapidly to form the 100 billion or so neurons that an infant's brain has at birth. Once formed, neurons begin to migrate to the correct location in the brain, and some synapses begin forming. 

Balance of nutrients for your baby.

It has been understood in my previous blog also,but i once again wants to advise you that you get the balance of nutrients your baby needs, like folic acid and vitamin B12 to make red blood cells, vitamin C to produce collagen, vitamin D for bone building, and zinc for brain development. If your vitamin upsets your stomach, don't just ditch it: Try taking it with a meal, or talk to your doctor about switching brands.omega-3 fatty acids, may boost your baby's brainpower.Produce contains antioxidants, which are good for your baby. "Antioxidants protect the baby's brain tissue from damage," Choose deep-colored produce -- like dark leafy greens, papaya, blueberries, and tomatoes -- for the biggest antioxidant punch. Just remember to wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly, even fruits that have to be (since cutting it will drag germs through the flesh).

A baby's brain develops faster during the nine months in his mother's womb than at any other time in the child's life, and the development of the fetal nervous system is affected – for better or worse – by what's in the mother's blood during the nine months of pregnancy.What's going on in mother's mind may also affect baby's mental development. While the science of fetal psychology is itself in its infancy, there is growing evidence that babies' brains are influenced by events outside the womb.

A mother whose pregnancy is filled with a consistent unresolved pattern of fear or anxiety has a greater chance of producing an anxious child.Mother and baby share hormones, and an environment full of stress hormones may affect the wiring of the developing brain. Stress is inevitable in life, especially during times of change such as pregnancy. It's what you do about it that matters. A mother who eats well, gets regular exercise, and takes time to work through her own fears and anxieties will create a better womb environment for her baby. Other family members should be aware of the need to nurture mom, so she can be mentally as calm as possible to nurture the new life growing inside her.

To talked to your baby in  a womb is the most healthy attitude builders.How you talk to your baby has a profound effect on your baby's brain development, and here's where parents, especially mothers, really shine.Mothers, you don't have to learn how to talk to your baby. You're a natural. Mothers instinctively use motherese – upbeat tones  – to talk to their babies. To make sure baby gets the message, mothers instinctively draw out their vowels - "Goood baaaby." How a mother talks is more important to a baby than what she says.you naturally speak to your baby as if you are imagining a dialogue.You just imagines that your baby talks back. This is a baby's earliest speech lesson, in which the mother is shaping her baby's ability to listen.

Important tip for you:

Breastmilk contains around 400 nutrients that are not found in any formula. For example, mother's milk contains brain-building fats that provide the components for building myelin, the insulating sheath around nerve fibers that help messages travel faster.
