Breast Feeding : Help generating baby’s cleverness.


In the first 6 months after birth, the brain will rapidly develop itself. It is a great opportunity for mommy to nourish the baby’s brain. During this period, the nerve cells inside the brain will multiply themselves into network to develop brain system. Sense stimulation and nourishment are essential for children of this age.
The minutes after birth, the child feels warm in mother’s arms with his face close to mother’s breasts. This will automatically allow the child to acknowledge the touch and responses by drinking breast milk from mother. It is the way to generate the first sense of taste to the baby and the beginning of brain development after the birth. It also stimulates breast milk producing believed to be the best nutrition for brain growth development.
There are more than 200 kinds of nutrition which help generating nerve cells and brain cells, particularly nerve growth factors, contained only in breast milk and they are essential to human child and its brain.
Phospholipids, essential fatty acids or EFA, DHA and AA fatty acids contained in breast milk will be important generating factors to generate myelin sheath that helps sending – receiving learning ability systematically, completely, and rapidly for brain functioning.
Based on a long-run research in Denmark on 3,000 sampling cases, children who were breast-fed for 9 months or longer gained the average I.Q level at 104 while the children who were less than a month of breast feeding had the average I.Q level at 99.4.
Besides essential nutrition, breast feeding stimulates the rest of baby’s sensing nerves. It helps brain nerves to multiply themselves. The more mother hold her child, the more stimulation will be. If breast feeding in mother’s warm arms can be done at least 8 – 10 times daily, it would repeat brain recognition cycle. If not, the brain nerves will lose their multiplication and become pruning and will soon be eliminated.
Not only higher I.Q. levels can be obtained through breast feeding, but also does the mother ‘s body will yield out happy hormone “ endorphin “ providing desirable mood for mother herself, and pass it to the baby through warm hug, eye contact, smile, and talking. Warm relationship between mother and the baby helps inner pleasure and good emotional development.
