5 tips for being pregnant in the summer
Are you due to give birth during the summer months or just afterwards? Being pregnant in the summer can be very challenging, especially if it's one of those super summers that you always hope for...
Did you know that amniotic fluid has the same scent as the nipple?
Yes, that's actually true, amniotic fluid has the same scent as the nipple to help the baby find it more easily.
The sense of smell is developed already in the womb but starts functioning only when the baby begins to breathe air. The glands in the areola secrete a substance that has the same scent as the amniotic fluid. This helps the baby to seek the breast. The baby will also quickly learn the scent and taste of your milk. Therefore, it is good to avoid perfumed products and instead choose, for example, a natural nipple cream when the baby is newborn.
