You probably aren't aware of just how quickly babies can change and grow. In almost no time at all a baby goes from a ball of rapidly dividing cells to the beginnings of a human being with rudimentary lungs, a brain and a pumping heart. That tiny ball of cells only needs forty weeks to grow and form a human being capable of living on its own. It seems like not very much time passes at all between birth and the time when your baby has very definite likes and dislikes. Things like moving on their own, needing help with diaper changes and even how they learn to speak are pretty commonly understood. Here are some interesting tidbits and trivia about infants that you might have fun learning.
An infant's body is made up of three hundred individual bones. There are only two hundred and six bones in an adult's body. While this might sound like your body absorbs your bones as you grow up, the reality is that some of your bones simply fuse together. Some people think that this is one of the reasons that babies are so much more physically flexible than adults, because some of their bones are still able to move about independent of each other. If you look at a baby's flexibility and compare it to your own, this might make a lot of sense.
A baby can create an array of sounds that will amaze even the most talented vocalist--even though it will take a while before those sounds become anything that you will be able to identify as real words. This is due to the fact that a baby's larynx won't be finished developing until long after the baby has been born. This is one of the reasons that babies can make more sounds than adults. Babies quickly start to assign the sounds they make to the things that they want or need. This is the way babies teach their parents how to get them what they want--as long as the parents are paying attention they can usually figure it out within a moment or two. A baby's first word is usually one that he can make using the consonants made by the front of his mouth and a couple of vowel sounds. In a baby's vocabulary "mama" usually comes after "dada" because it is harder for babies to learn how to make the "m" sound.
Most people believe that babies do not know how to smile before they are born. If a smile is detected it is blamed on gas. For a long time it was common thought that smiling was a learned behavior--something that the baby learned from his or her parents over the first few weeks of life. It was widely believed that it was easier for a baby to learn how to express unhappiness than it was to learn how to express happiness. Now it is apparent that this has always been wrong. Advances have been made in ultrasound technology and more parents are seeing images of their children smiling while they are still in utero. Now families are given ultrasound pictures of their smiling children many weeks before the children's' due date. Some scientists now believe that the reason babies take so long to "learn" to smile is because the birthing process is so traumatic for them.
There are vast quantities of facts about babies that most people are unaware of. Learning about infants and young children can be quite interesting. Parenting becomes far more enjoyable when you know a little bit more about how your baby is developing.
