Infantile senses

 πŸ˜‚ Funny Facts


– Baby Knows Best!


During an ultrasound, a mum-to-be asked me:

“Doctor, will my baby recognize your voice when she’s born?”


πŸ‘Ά Fun fact: Babies start developing their senses much earlier than most people think:


Touch begins around 8 weeks — that’s when they can first feel.


Taste develops by 13–15 weeks — yes, they can “taste” flavors through the amniotic fluid!


Hearing becomes active around 25 weeks — and that’s when they start recognizing voices.


So yes, babies know their mum’s voice best, but they can also get familiar with sounds they hear often — including the doctor during checkups!


I smiled and replied:

“Looks like I might need to say hello when she arrives!” πŸ˜…✨


And actually, when I deliver babies, I always greet them with a smile and say:

“Welcome to Zambia!” πŸ’™πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡²


πŸ’‘ Key note: Pregnancy is full of miracles — tiny humans growing not only in size but in senses. Science makes the journey even more magical and explains the senses, but love and warmth make the journey unforgettable.
