Fetals Brain Development

Fetals Brain Development

The human brain begins forming very early in prenatal life ( just three weeks after conception ), but in many ways, brain development is a lifelong project. That is because the same events that shape the brain during development are also responsible for storing information, new skills and memories, throughout life. The major difference between brain development in a child versus learning an adult is a matter of degree: the brain is far more impressionable ( neuroscientists use the term plastic ) in early life than maturity. This plasticity has both a positive and negative side. On the positive side, it means that young children’s brains are more open to learning and enriching influences. On the negative side, it also means that young children’s brains are more vulnerable to developmental problems should their environment prove especially impoverished or un-nurturing.

Many factors can influence fetal brain development, but most healthy pregnant women do not need to radically alter their lifestyles in order to promote optimal brain development.

The factors are :

1.      Nutrition, nutrition of foods that mother eats is good for brain development and eyes retina of fetus.
