Are babies born smarter? In fact, if you want to make your baby smart, these 4 points are more important

There is a mother in the group, who posted a long text two days ago, saying that expectant mothers who have not yet given birth, if the hospital requires an autopsy, it is best to listen to the doctor, not forcibly obey.

She said that when she gave birth, the mother who was opposite the bed, the contractions were very regular, but the uterine mouth opened two fingers and did not open, for two whole days, the mother died of pain in bed, and the doctor gave two injections of painkiller injections to no avail. The doctor looked at it for too long, and after the examination, he suggested that they should quickly dissect it, but Bao's mother and mother-in-law were unwilling, saying that a baby born naturally was better and must be smooth.

As a result, until the third day, the palace entrance still only opened two fingers, and Bao's mother was in pain and unconscious, so she hurried to dissect. As a result, the child was admitted to the ICU as soon as he was born, deprived of oxygen, inhaled meconium, and purple all over his body.

The poor mother was worried about the baby in the ICU while the wound of the cesarean section hurt, and the whole person almost collapsed.

Many people think that a baby born by cesarean section is healthier or even smarter than a baby born by cesarean section, so even if you have to have a cesarean section, insist on being smooth, which will not only bring danger to the baby in the belly, but also affect the health of the mother.

Moreover, a baby born naturally will really not be smarter than a cesarean section.

In response to 200 babies born by vaginal birth and cesarean section, a survey was conducted by authoritative foreign medical institutions. The results showed that there was no significant difference in intelligence between the babies born from these two delivery methods.

Vaginal birth is a natural birth, and the baby is born from the mother's vagina; Cesarean section is to achieve the purpose of completion of delivery through surgical assistance when the fetal position is wrong, the fetus is too large or hypoxic, the umbilical cord is around the neck, and the pelvic bone is narrowed.

Of course, babies born vaginally or by cesarean section still have some differences in other ways.

First, a sense of security.

Babies born naturally, after undergoing birth canal squeezing and various turns, come to this world with a high degree of running-in and cooperation with the pregnant mother, and their ability to adapt will be faster.

The baby who was delivered by cesarean section, without going through this process, was artificially forcibly carried out of the warm uterus, had a poor ability to adapt to the new environment, and was more likely to worry and fear, and lacked security.

However, with the passage of time and the careful care of the mother, the difference in the sense of security of the babies born by the two delivery methods will gradually shrink, or even no difference.

Second, immunity.

Babies born spontaneously squeezed by the birth canal can effectively avoid suffocation and pneumonia, and make the baby healthier.

At the same time, after the mother gives birth, she can quickly secrete milk to ensure that the baby eats colostrum as soon as possible. Babies born by caesarean section are delayed for 2-3 days to eat, and immunity is not obtained in time.

Third, sensory integration development.

During the natural birth process, the baby's head, chest and abdomen and joints will be stimulated to a certain extent, allowing the baby to experience the earliest human sense of touch, vestibular sense and proprioception. 

The baby who had a caesarean section unfortunately missed this learning and perception process.

However, these differences will gradually be made up the day after tomorrow as the baby grows, and mothers do not have to worry, let alone think that this is the reason for the use of anesthesia during cesarean section. Anesthesia during caesarean section is very short and does not affect your baby's health. 

To sum up, it is naturally best to have a smooth birth; But if the situation does not allow, then follow the doctor's judgment, and the dissection will be performed.

Since the mode of delivery has little impact on the baby's intellectual development, what factors affect the baby's intelligence level?

First, genetic factors.

Studies have shown that more than 80% of the baby's intellectual development level is affected by the genetics of the parents.

This is because in the third week of pregnancy, the brain nerves that affect the baby's intellectual development have begun to gradually form. On the baby's chromosomes, there are genes that determine the baby's intelligence; And these genes come from the genetic factors of the parents.

Some babies inherit more paternal factors, while others inherit more maternal factors. Therefore, we often say: "Parents have a high IQ, but children's IQ is generally not low." ”

Second, environmental factors.

Genetic factors have a great impact on the baby's intellectual development, but genetic genes are not artificially controllable and cannot be easily changed. Parents can also stimulate and promote the baby's intellectual development through external environmental stimulation.

Before the age of 3, it is the "golden age" of the baby's brain development. Parents should have more good parent-child interaction with the baby during this period, which will have a multiplier effect on the baby's intellectual development.

For example, talking to the baby more, giving the baby more colorful toys, and letting the baby lie on his chest to play more will help the baby's brain development.

Third, nutritional factors.

In addition to genetic and environmental factors, nutritional factors are also one of the important indicators of brain maturity of babies.

In the golden period of baby's development, it is necessary to supplement a lot of nutrients such as lecithin, protein, and iron. If the baby's body lacks these nutrients, it will indirectly affect the transmission speed of brain nerves, which in turn will negatively affect the baby's intellectual development.

Fourth, take your baby more to contact nature.

Use weekends/holidays and other leisure time to take children into nature, travel, climb mountains, go to the beach, to know everything in nature, let children feel the colorful external world, can greatly activate the neurons in the child's brain, so that the child becomes more and more intelligent.

In short, whether the child is smart or not has little to do with vaginal birth or caesarean section. Although congenital genetic factors play an important role, they can also promote children's brain development through acquired cultivation and make children smarter and smarter.
