Do babies learn in uterus?
It is important to remember that babies can learn from their mother while in uterus, just by listening to her voice! You should read a fairy-tale to your baby before he or she is born and the baby will grow to love it. Later when the baby is born, he or she will suckle faster and easier while listening to the same fairy-tale he or she liked in uterus.

That means that babies learn in uterus, even before they are born. New-born infants 3 days old can discriminate their mother’s voice from the voice of another female. Besides that, they also try to imitate her voice, which indicates that they find it nice and pleasant. Dear moms, talk to your new-born baby often, you’ll make them satisfied and happy. Babies are the happiest when they are with their moms.
