Today, doctors are aware that babies are beginning to learn about the world around them in the womb. The learning process that involves these imperfect senses lasts during the third trimester in the womb or even before that. This broke the allegations of doctors over the years that babies were born without any knowledge of the outside world.
After 23 weeks, the fetus will be able to hear the voice of the Mother and other voices, perhaps even responding to whatever she hears by moving more actively. What are the voices heard by Little? Can be the sound of heartbeat, breathing, digestion of Mother, as well as the voices of faintly from outside the body of Mother.
Learning Since It's Still In The Crib
It is suspected that by reading stories or listening to music for the fetus or even just by talking to her, the fetus can get a simple learning experience inside the womb. In addition, as related experts have suggested after birth, the baby may be able to remember and recognize certain sounds while still in the womb. Listening to music can be a wonderful way for Mother and baby to relax.
When the fetus hears the music, his heart rate will increase and he tends to move more. Not long after birth, it is possible that the baby will respond to the same piece of music that he often heard while in the cradle. The reaction makes the baby more stretched and listening. In the same way, the baby may also show that he or she is remembered and comforted by certain sounds that are heard while in the womb. However, an early childhood education expert advised not to play music through earphones in Mother's belly. This is because the atmosphere in the womb is actually quite noisy.
Recognizing the Mother's Language and Her Suffering Voice
As the baby in the womb continues to grow, he becomes trying to get all the information needed just by listening to the mother's talk with others. He can also recognize the patterns and rhythms of the book that Mother read aloud. A study shows that babies begin to recognize language as early as 10 weeks in the womb.
The fetal heart rate will slow slightly each time the Mother speaks when the womb is about 7-8 months old. This shows the voice of Mother has a calming effect for her. Not only that, when a new baby is born, he can recognize his mother's voice.
In the same study of babies who have been born, pacifiers that have been connected to the tape recorder are given to the baby. The tape recorder contains the sounds of other mothers and women. Within 10-20 minutes, the baby is finally able to learn in distinguishing his mother's voice. The way in which babies are shown is to adjust the level of suction pacifier to give the code of recognition of their own mother's voice. It not only shows the innate newborn love for the mother's voice alone, but also shows the baby's unique ability to learn quickly. However, there is no evidence that newborns are capable of showing the same preference for a father's voice or sibling's voice.
Building Proximity
Hearing the voice of Bunnda while he was still in the womb helped the baby feel attached to the Mother quickly after she was born. One theory shows that the reason hearing the baby so well developed in the womb is to help him start a bond with Mother even before he was born. After birth, babies may be happy to hear the voice of the Mother compared to other voices.
This is the Way of Fetus Learning
Here are three main ways of learning that the fetus does while still in the womb.
When the Mother often make a noise, the baby tends not to be surprised by the sounds when they are born. This proves that the baby can learn through sounds that he hears repeatedly.
Babies recognize familiar sounds and music. Babies can also be calmed with sway and certain sounds like a car engine, which might remind them of the movements and sounds of Mother's body. In this case, the baby becomes accustomed to the experiences he experiences.
Babies can learn to connect certain experiences with Mother's feelings at the time. For example when Mother often listens to certain parts of music while relaxing, the same music can soothe the baby later on. This example reinforces the notion that infants can associate certain habits by remembering.
What Mother did during pregnancy can be helpful in aiding the baby's natural cognitive development. The more Mother interacts with her, including singing and speaking, the baby becomes faster in adapting to the surrounding environment
