Will the baby be born smarter if pregnant mothers use their brains more?

Summary: Although a child\’s IQ is affected by innate genetic factors and acquired education, the mother\’s behavior during pregnancy does affect the child. This is just like children who have received prenatal education will be more sensitive to the rhythm of music after birth, while pregnant mothers who have not received prenatal education are often depressed, and their children often have emotional disorders, poor physical fitness and other problems after birth. Yesterday, a friend who was just two months pregnant asked me on WeChat: Sister Yaotiao, my husband heard somewhere that pregnant women use their brains more, and the babies will be smarter after birth. Now I am forced to do math problems and play various intellectual games at home all day long. My heart is very resistant, I don’t like it and I don’t want to do it. But if it is true, I was too lazy to use my brain during the entire pregnancy. Wouldn’t the child be stupid by then?

Hearing this, Sister Yaotiao couldn\’t help but think of when she was pregnant with Xiong\’s baby, and heard people around her say that the pregnant mother would use her brain to think about problems, and the child would be smarter. So I stupidly took a pen to do advanced mathematics, but ended up not being able to solve a single problem all morning.

But then again, is this really reliable? Sister Yaotiao, I read some information and consulted several professionals. The conclusion is that although a child\’s IQ is affected by innate genetic factors and acquired education, the mother\’s behavior during pregnancy does have an impact on the child. This is just like children who have received prenatal education will be more sensitive to the rhythm of music after birth, while pregnant mothers who have not received prenatal education are often depressed, and their children often have emotional disorders, poor physical fitness and other problems after birth.

Research has found that if pregnant mothers can use their brains as usual, are good at learning new things, and can think seriously when encountering problems. Not only can it reduce the three-year delay in pregnancy and the decline in IQ during pregnancy, it can also affect the development of the cranial nerves and brain cells of the unborn child. In other words, if pregnant mothers often use their brains, the children born may be smarter.

Therefore, pregnant mothers should not force themselves to be motivated during pregnancy, but at least they should not sleep after eating all day. Properly engaging in some mental activities is also beneficial.

Although the ten months of pregnancy are long, it is relatively the most precious and happiest time in a woman\’s life. Taking advantage of this short but long October, pregnant mothers can pick up their previous hobbies. You can usually learn to draw at home and buy some good books to read. If you are energetic, you can sign up for a class to learn calligraphy or guzheng, otherwise it is worth getting a certificate.

If you feel that these will increase your fatigue, but you don\’t want to do it. In fact, pregnant mothers can also play checkers, backgammon, Jiugongge and other small games with their husbands. Occasionally, two people can also write some diaries together or good expectations for the unborn little one.

At this point, I have to mention that you must control the time of everything you do during pregnancy, otherwise it will be very bad for the pregnant mother and the fetus over time. As for mental activities, pregnant mothers should also choose carefully. For example, playing mahjong can pass the time, but it also indirectly makes the brain more flexible. But this kind of activity is actually mechanical, let aloneThe feeling of pottery is very easy for pregnant mothers to become addicted. When the time comes, the consequences will be endless.
