Top 10 Odd Facts about Babies
Did you know that human babies are the only primates that smile back? Did you also know that a baby is born every 3 seconds? I bet you didn’t know these 10 bizarre baby facts:
10. Hiccups
A child’s swallowing and breathing habits are not completely harmonized in the first year or two. Thebaby may try to swallow as it tries to breathe out. Simultaneously, it is learning to unravel these bad models, so it just takes them longer than it takes a grown person to go back to normal. Nursing a baby or giving him or her bottle may temporarily solve the issue.
9 Fake Coughing Habit
It is a type cough that develops at the age of six months. When babies start to cough, they are trying to understand how the world works. The child has noticed that when somebody coughs, mother is very caring, so the baby is doing it to get attention. Remember, attention is good, but too much attention becomes not good for both the parent and the child.
8. They Eat First
Babies eat first. Using the umbilical cord, they take the nutrients they need and leave the mother everything else. That’s why doctors recommend pregnant mothers eat healthy diets throughout the duration of the pregnancy.
7. Men Change Diapers Better
Men are officially the best at changing baby. Research shows that the average time taken by a woman to change a baby is 2 minutes and 5 seconds – but the average man takes only 1 minute and 36 seconds. It’s not a race!!
6. Tastes
A baby is not able to taste salt until the age of 4 months. The delay can be attributed to the development of kidneys, which start to process sodium at that time. Severe tooth decay can occur if a child or toddler regularrlt drinks any carbohydrate-containing liquid (milk, formula, or juice) from a bottle at bedtime or sips from a bottle continually throughout the day.
