As society becomes more and more developed, people's lives are becoming more and more demanding. Many women pay great attention to their baby's prenatal education when they are pregnant. But there are also many women who don’t know how to do prenatal education, so the question arises, how many times a day should you listen to prenatal education music? Is there anything particular about the practice of music prenatal education?
How many times a day should you listen to prenatal education music
Music prenatal education is to continuously stimulate the fetus with appropriate musical sounds to promote the development of axons, dendrites and synapses of its neurons, laying the foundation for optimizing acquired intelligence and developing musical talent. . In terms of physiological effects, prenatal education music stimulates the auditory nerve organs of pregnant women and fetuses through pleasant sound effects, causing the excitement of brain cells, changing the release of hypothalamic transmitters, and prompting the mother to secrete some healthy hormones such as enzymes, Acetylcholine, etc., keep the body in excellent condition and promote the healthy growth of the fetus in the abdomen.
There are also regulations on when to listen to music for prenatal education. It is not good to do it too early or too late. Generally, by 24 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus's auditory function has been fully established.
In the 4th to 5th month of pregnancy, music prenatal education can be given to the fetus, twice a day, 3-5 minutes each time. During the 5th to 7th month of pregnancy, two pieces of music can be played in turn, and parents can also talk or sing to the fetus, twice a day for 5 minutes each time. After 7 months of pregnancy, you can take regular classes, 3 times a day, 5-10 minutes each time. Tell stories or sing songs in the morning, listen to music or text training after get off work, and do music and text training before going to bed at night.
The fetus is most active from 8 to 11 pm, which is the most suitable time for listening to music for prenatal education. Do not exceed 12 minutes at a time, because the fetal brain development is limited, and if it exceeds 12 minutes, he will enter a protective state.
The practice of music prenatal education
From the perspective of pregnant women, most of them have emotions such as anxiety and tension, which lead to disordered eating and endocrine functions. This is actually due to the mother’s excessive worry about pregnancy. It is caused by psychological factors. Therefore, a good psychological environment for the mother is a good cradle for the healthy growth of the fetus. The prenatal education process for mothers is to use music to help mothers reduce their anxiety and tension about pregnancy and childbirth, and create a good living environment for the fetus. And through the relationship between music and exercise, the mother's physical fitness is enhanced to improve the physical factors of the fetus.
Methods that can be used for music prenatal education include: active listening, music relaxation and meditation, music and rhythm, mother teaching children to "sing", etc. Using these methods to let the baby listen to music can produce different effects from the mother's listening to music. In comparison, playing music or humming for the child seems more intimate and direct, and the fetal heart rate, movements, etc. will also undergo greater changes. Special attention should be paid to not listening to music for the fetus for too long, generally 5 to 10 minutes is appropriate. Music prenatal education is generally more suitable to start from six months old, and the earliest is four months old, because the fetal hearing is not mature enough until four months old.
