Pregnancy Mistakes: Women will never make this one mistake in pregnancy
Pregnancy is the most sensitive time of women's lives, where every small and big habit affects the child growing in their womb. During this time, women should not do one thing, which has a wrong effect on the mind of the unborn child.
Pregnancy is the most sensitive time of women's lives, where every small and big habit affects the child growing in their womb. If women consume alcohol during this time, it can have a profound effect on the development of their child's brain. Recent research has revealed that consuming just one glass of alcohol during pregnancy is enough to change the shape of the baby's brain.
Research conducted at the Medical University of Vienna found that exposure to alcohol can cause the baby's right superior temporal sulcus (STS) to become shallow. This is the part of the brain that controls the ability to feel and learn language. Researchers said that consumption of small amounts of alcohol during pregnancy also affects the structure and development of the brain.
How to avoid alcohol?
Dr. Patrick Kinast, the lead author of the study and neurologist at Vienna Medical University, says that pregnant women should avoid alcohol completely. He said that consumption of alcohol during pregnancy can delay the maturity of the brain and it can cause structural changes. It not only hurts the mental development of the child, but also on his emotional and physical development.
