From a medical and embryological point of view, fetal development is a true marvel of precision and complexity. But also… it’s weirder than you think! Here are some clinically proven data that few dare to tell:
The fetus TASTE the amniotic fluid.
What the mother eats changes the taste, and if she likes it… she swallows more! Do you want your child to love vegetables? It starts from the womb.
They have DREAMS.
In the third trimester there is already the REM phase. What does a being who has never gone out into the world dream about? Nobody knows, but he does it.
They recognize their mother’s VOICE.
At 25 weeks they already distinguish sounds. Mother’s voice calms your heart rate. And there are still those who say that “they don’t feel anything”?
MALE fetuses have erections.
Yes, in the womb. It is not sexual, it is part of hormonal development. But can you imagine how people would react if this were shown in school books?
They can CRY from the womb.
No tears, but facial expressions, chin tremors, and irregular breathing. Crying or training? Science continues studying it.
They urinate and then DRINK their own urine.
Amniotic fluid is 90% fetal urine. And they swallow it several times a day. Does it disgust you? Well, this is how the fluid balance is formed and your kidneys develop.
