A new study by British scientists has shown that they grow much healthier than those born in other seasons. This phenomenon may be due to the fact that women in the last months of pregnancy are more exposed to the sun and get large quantity vitamin D, says the site.

The healthiest and most resilient babies are born in summer

The study was conducted on about 500,000 young children in the UK. It showed that children born in June, July and August had higher birth weights and were taller than their peers when they came of age.

Study author Dr John Perry from the University of Cambridge explains that babies born between June and September are more likely to be taller and have larger bones than babies born in winter. This, researchers believe, is due to exposure to vitamin D while the fetus is in the womb.

Winter children are most prone to illness

Babies born in autumn and winter are more likely to develop food allergies, where scientists believe low sun exposure during pregnancy and low level vitamin D intake. Asthma is also a common disease among children born in winter, and the theoretical explanation is high exposure to allergens in the first months of a baby's life due to weather.

Research lasts more than one year

Dr. John Perry's research on this topic is far from the first. Back in 1930, scientists proved that children born in winter are more prone to lifelong health problems, develop slowly and may suffer from mental illness. Among the proposed explanations were the illnesses of expectant mothers in the last months of pregnancy, low air temperatures and high levels of environmental pollution.

Each child is absolutely unique. With a competent approach, surrounded by love and care, getting a good education and developing their abilities, any kid can become a full-fledged personality and live an interesting life.

But there are several factors that can affect the development of certain qualities in a child.

Smart or beautiful?

For example, American scientists involved in the study of the intellectual abilities of children analyzed the medical records of about one and a half million women in labor and came to an interesting conclusion. Children with the highest intellectual potential are born slightly premature - usually at the 41st week of pregnancy. However, there is a downside to the coin - such newborns are much less likely to be born completely healthy.

Is mom's age and IQ related?

British researchers, in turn, have identified optimal age mothers for the birth of future intellectuals. In women who give birth at 30-39 years old, children are more likely to show a high level of IQ. However, according to experts, this is due not so much to the biological age as to the social maturity of the mother. Giving birth after 30, a woman takes a more responsible approach to raising a child, deals with it more and develops it more actively. From here - and more effective result.

Summer and winter children

If we talk about health, then, as a rule, babies who were born in the summer months are less susceptible to various diseases. They are born with a larger mass and in the future grow taller than their peers. Doctors attribute this to the amount of sunlight the mother receives during the final weeks of pregnancy. They are optimists in life and real minions of fate.

TO THE POINT:

As for the "winter" children, they are mostly more active, sociable and purposeful. Spring newborns may have slightly weakened immunity, but they are stubborn and hardworking. And among those who were born in the fall, left-handers and centenarians are more common.

All parents dream of their child being healthy, beautiful and smart. And if parents can still somehow try to influence the health of their future child, leading healthy lifestyle life, but with beauty and intelligence, everything is much more complicated.

Scientists were puzzled by the question in which period the most brilliant people are born and why this happens.

Specialists conducted a rather large-scale study, during which the biographies of 750 brilliant people from different eras were studied.

At the same time, it also plays a huge role whether there was any flash on the Sun during the birth of the baby. Experts say that the possibility of revealing talent and increasing learning abilities increases significantly if such outbreaks took place at the time of the birth of the baby.

According to the observations of scientists, solar flares most often occur just on Wednesdays and Saturdays, as well as on Tuesdays at the indicated time intervals, which, in fact, confirms the results obtained.

In fact, experts have long been studying the issue of the most favorable period for the birth of smart children. So, it was previously determined at what time of the year the greatest number of geniuses are born. According to researchers, this is winter, especially the month of February. And by the way, it is in February that solar flares and solar activity occur most often.

Therefore, if you are planning a child and want him to be at least smart, and, as a maximum, brilliant, then you can try to conceive a future heir, for example, in June, then there will be a high probability that he will be born in February. And if you are lucky, then he will also be born, for example, on Wednesday or Saturday morning or on Tuesday evening. And if you have testimony C-section, then you can choose the desired time at your own discretion, agreeing, of course, with the doctor.

What time of year is best to give birth to a genius

Planning a baby is one of the most exciting and responsible activities on earth. More recently, women were deprived of such an opportunity and gave birth regardless of the season. Today, thanks to contraception and medicine, it is possible to choose the season, and even the month of the birth of your own child. Mankind has long noticed that "summer" children are different from "winter", and representatives of different signs of the zodiac have features characteristic of the sign ... What to prefer?

Choosing the month of birth for the future genius, modern parents based on statistics and elementary logic.

The vast majority of mothers try to "guess the season" based on their own interests, although many do not forget about the baby at the same time. Here are examples of typical reasoning of “planning parents”:

1. Give birth better in summer or in autumn: colds in a newborn are reduced, it is possible to “walk” him for a long time fresh air, there is no shortage of beneficial sunshine. The brain of a future genius develops rapidly with high solar activity. And mom is good: diapers dry quickly, and the diet is filled with fresh vegetables and fruits. to care for recent months Pregnancy in the summer is more convenient: at least clothes, the body's thermoregulation does not suffer. In summer, people are born under the signs twin c (recognized intellectuals, versatile personalities), Cancer(subtly feeling beauty), lion(wishing to be the first in everything). Autumn children are Virgin(thoughtful and rational) Scales(hardworking and creative) scorpions(sharp and stubborn).

Those born in the summer are more often short-sighted than others, wear glasses, and more often than their peers experience information hunger, ”some researchers warn.

2. Give birth better in winter and in the spring. The baby will sleep peacefully in a warm bed for the first months: the days are short, life is unhurried. By summer, the child will already be strong. In winter, there is more oxygen in the air, which is important for the brain of a newborn. A woman has her own benefits: by spring, she is already bouncing back, getting used to a new role, and joining an active life. That's just in winter, "very pregnant" is hard to wear "a hundred clothes", and ice is a rather dangerous thing. Winter signs: archers(wise and purposeful), Capricorn(serious and persistent) Aquarius(far-sighted and demanding of themselves). spring appear Fish(dreamy and creative people), Aries(enthusiasts and pioneers), Taurus(aesthetics with a rich inner world).

Those born in winter are often prone to overweight, cardiovascular diseases, doctors say. In addition, according to statistics, mental disorders and depression more often overtake those who were born in the cold season. They say the truth: from genius to madness - one step. By the way, according to statistics, the oligarchs (“the powers that be”) are also born more often closer to winter.

There is a rational grain in each of the above typical reasoning. In winter, according to statistics, more people are born: they are conceived in the spring, when all living things actively reproduce. It has been proven that winter and spring babies, on average, have higher birth weight and stronger immunity. This means that a genius simply increases the chances of being born and surviving in winter.

In theory, brilliant child can be born at any time of the year and under any star. Is this a matter of chance? It turns out like this. Although you can try to look for patterns.

Imagine such an experiment. Now, if you would study 40 volumes of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, write out the dates of birth of more than 17 thousand famous talented people: artists, poets, writers, scientists, and try to find the pattern of the time of year of their birth. E. Vinogradov, a man who did not spare his time to study the relationship of the season with the birth of a genius, took up this at one time.

As a result of painstaking work, he got a graph: a kind of birth curve for geniuses. The maximum number of brilliant people who went down in history were born in winter: the peak is in February-March, but the least number of talents are born in summer (the minimum percentage is in July and August). There are exceptions to this rule: Pushkin and Repin, for example, were born in the summer.

Statistics is a stubborn thing, but do not get upset and postpone pregnancy until spring. Let your summer child will become an exceptional genius, in defiance of all dry statistical squeezes!

When are the healthiest babies born?

From time immemorial in Russia, children were conceived in the fall, and were born in late spring and summer. Wedding time was in October. It was related to religious traditions and season field work. Just in September, the time for harvesting was ending, and the peasant could rest. And as you know, everyone worked in the fields - both men and women. It is not difficult to understand how this affected the health of children who early age tempered and taught to work.

But if we consider the time of conception and birth from a scientific point of view, then in each season you can find its pros and cons. Choose what is more important to you and decide for yourself.
