In the womb, fetuses are able to remember
things, breath and even, feel pains.
At the first moment of the formation,
fetuses are human. After 22 days of pregnancy, fetuses have heartbeat and in a
few weeks later, they have tiny human-like shapes.
During pregnancy, there’re many specular
changes of fetuses. There’re surprising truths about fetuses that many pregnant
women may not know.
In 12th week, fetuses can feel pain
In the 12th week of pregnancy, fetuses
can feel pain like newborns. They can feel the pain from nerves to the spinal
cord or thalamus. At this time, fetuses start forming organs like the belly
cord and face. They are even able to put their finger on the mouth. In the
period of time, fetal body is as big as a peach.
In
the 12th week, fetuses can feel pains as much as newborns.
In 20th week, fetuses can recognize their
mother’s voice
At this time, fetuses can distinguish the
voice of their mothers from other sounds nearby, which is why when born, they
naturally know their mothers. Meanwhile, pregnant women can also know the sex
of fetuses by looking at ultrasound images. Moreover, from this week goes,
pregnant women can feel fetal movements.
Fetuses can breathe in the womb.
Though the uterus is full of amniotic
fluid, it doesn’t stop fetuses from practice breathing. From the 5th
month of pregnancy, fetal lungs start developing completely and fetuses start
breathing. At this stage, if we place the ear on the womb, we can hear fetal
heartbeat as well as the rhythm of breath.
Fetuses have taste
Scientists conducted a research by adding
different things in the amniotic fluid to see fetal reactions. When adding
spices in the fluid, fetuses feel excited and swallow the fluid more
enthusiastically than usual. When adding sour or bitter spices, fetuses show
their unwilling by taking mouths. Therefrom, scientists concluded that since
people were in the womb, they’ve already had taste.
Fetuses
can feel songs, lullabies that their mothers give to them.
Fetuses can remember
Don’t take it wrong that fetuses can’t
learn. They not only learn the mother tongue, but also recognize songs,
lullabies that are given by their mothers. A research was carried out on 10
pregnant women who were in the 5th month of pregnancy. They let
fetuses listen to lullabies. After birth, whenever they hear the lullabies,
they stop crying right away.
Fetuses also recognize foods that their
mothers often eat and they tend to like those foods after birth.
Pregnant women’s heartbeat can affect fetuses
In the last months of pregnancy, things
that pregnant women do, especially their heart can affects fetal heartbeat. If
pregnant women’s heartbeats increase, the fetal ones increase, too. That’s why
pregnant women need to stay calm and avoid overwhelm feeling during pregnancy.
According to psychologists, pregnant women had better stay in comfortable
zones, think positively and avoid stress.
Fetuses have dreams
Fetuses
have more dreams than they can have after birth.
From the 17th week, fetuses have
dreams. According to researches, in the womb, fetuses have more dreams than
they can have after birth. The number of fetus’s dream also bigger than
adult’s. For the phenomenon’s explanation, some suppositions were raised up.
One said it could be in the womb, fetuses can’t see the outside world, so they
have more dreams about the future life. There’s been no precise evidence,
though; it’s clearly seen that fetuses regularly have dreams, especially in
last months of pregnancy.
