baby's head will be larger thereby causing an increase in the risk of
delivery problems. In fact, there is reason to believe the opposite is

periods, a lower number of cesarean section deliveries, and a greater

number of non-traumatic births. In addition, a baby who experiences
prenatal stimulation tends to:
• Be calmer and more alert
• Be happier and cry less
• Have a longer attention span
• Be stronger and have better coordination
• Lift his or her head up earlier and stand earlier
• Walk earlier
• Talk earlier

is most alert during the evening hours so you may want to play music or
talk to her a few more times.
