Does the newborn's weight at birth hint at the baby's IQ level? It is not superstition that there is a scientific explanation

Text/Little Snow Mom

In the past, the elderly often said that they had a "big fat boy", thinking that the child's weight was high and the body was healthy, and he was also a blessed person in the future, and everyone loved to praise his child's "a few pounds and a few two", but in fact, the child's weight is not the higher the better, to a certain extent, the child's weight will also affect intelligence.

Like when my cousin was pregnant, my cousin's mother-in-law attached great importance to it, and the upper part of the food was mainly supplemented, afraid that the cousin's nutrition was not absorbed in place, and the baby inside the hungry stomach was hungry.

But when the cousin is pregnant, she also read a lot of books on raising the fetus, especially emphasizing that the nutrition during pregnancy should be balanced supplementation, can not be supplemented, if the supplement is too strong, the child is born with too much weight, it will cause harm to the mother, and the child's future intelligence will also have a certain impact, so the cousin is very resistant to the mother-in-law's old traditional thinking.

In fact, the weight of the newborn at birth has a certain impact on the baby's intelligence, and parents and families must pay attention to the fact that the fetus is not the fatter the weight, the healthier it is.

What does a child's birth weight have to do with intelligence?

Normally, a full-term baby should weigh 2.5kg to 4kg, that is, between 5 kg and 8 kg, usually when doing obstetric examinations, doctors will also specifically advise this.

After all, the child's weight is also one of the criteria used to judge whether the child's body is healthy after birth, that is to say, after the child is born, the weight is in this range, which means that the child's body is very healthy.

If the child weighs less than 5 pounds, the poor baby will have to spend a period of time in the incubator, and the parents themselves are also distressed; and if the baby is too heavy, the mother will be in danger when giving birth, we call it "huge child", which may lead to difficult childbirth, so we must pay attention to this.

Foreign scientific institutions have found that the closer the newborn is born to 6.5 kg, the better the brain IQ development

When a child is born with a weight of less than 5 pounds, the IQ may be lower, because the brain of the "premature baby" is not yet fully developed, so it will have a little impact. If the same child is on the high side of weight, when it exceeds the value of 8 pounds, the child's intelligence may also be damaged to a certain extent.

Of course, the impact of weight here on IQ is not absolute, because the child's IQ is affected in many ways, and the weight at birth is only a small part of the factor, more in the parents' education of the child.
