Babies?
Well I define them to be those little creatures that crawl out of a woman's Virgina innocently, yet pop all around, cry all day and drink milk and have cute little faces, but in all this, they are the reason why man hasn't gone into extinct.
Image a world without babies? That's unimaginable, they are cute and have the best smiles in the world.
So for this reason, I decided to share the Five Most Amazing Facts about Babies.
No Kneecaps:
Well I know this one will come to you as a shock but yes babies are born without knee caps.
Yes, you read that right. Babies have a structure of cartilage that resembles the kneecaps. These cartilages do not develop until they are fully six months. And that’s the reason most of the babies crawl on the arms instead of all fours. In fact, babies can crawl as soon as they are born. No kidding here! The Karolinska Institute in Sweden found that when the baby was dried and laid on the mother’s chest for feeding, he could find her chest within an hour. Now that’s impressive.
New Born Babies Do Not Cry:
It's a lie, right? I also didn't believe it when I first read it but then who argues with fact right?
Babies howl and scream for what they want or need, but they do not cry. Tears cannot be released or created for about three weeks. That’s because their tear ducts are not entirely developed. They do produce enough moisture to keep the eyes healthy, but they won’t shed proper tears for several weeks. Some kids do not drop their first tear until four or five months. That’s unusual and rare.
Babies Have 300 Bones:
This will defile all the knowledge we got studying biology, saying that humans have a total of 206 bones, well humans? arent babies humans too?
Unlike adults, babies are born with 300 bones, which is almost 50% more. The bones fuse together during growth that makes it 206. For example, the skull of the baby has several bones that overlap one another during the birth to help the baby squeeze out. Babies also have a very soft spot on the head called the fontanelle. Before the skull grows completely, it is just a squishy and sensitive area.
Your Baby Knows Your Taste In Music:
Watch the music you listen to while you pregnant else your baby might you know come out a dancer or some made reggae singer. LOL
According to research conducted by the University of Helsinki, babies recognize the music they hear in the womb for up to four months after the birth. In fact, the song that you used to hear during the pregnancy may even soothe his crankiness.
Babies Like Mumma’s Voice More:
Well this shouldn't come to anyone as a shock, don't we all love our mother's voice? Even as adults, the sound of our mother's voice makes everywhere seem calm and coordinated, well for me it those
Babies prefer women’s voices to men’s and like high-pitched singing more than low-pitched voices. You may have noticed that most of the people use higher tones while talking to a baby. You even get a better response from an infant if you use higher pitched voice.
All right guys, here we shall pause with the amazing facts of these little creatures, more facts will be coming soon!
