Prenatal Rhythm

When the baby in the womb kicks, the kicks are not completely random. Observation has shown that they actually kick a rhythm around the tempo established by the mother's heartbeat.

Now I wonder whether my children with their Cuban-American mother kicked mambos, cha-chas and other salsa or whether my genes suppressed them to a straight 2/4 march.

    Claytin kicked non-stop. What does that mean? I'll be sure to pay attention to the next baby's movements more! LOL

I have great admiration for those who have taught me and continue to (try to) teach me. Appropriate comments could be, "Duh!", "Wow!", "Do you really believe this?" and/or "This is very cool!"

Thanks for sharing!
