Prenatal stress changes brain connectivity in-utero

(Cognitive Neuroscience Society) The time babies spend in the womb is far from idle. The brain is changing more rapidly during this time than at any other time in development. It is an active time for the fetus to grow and explore, and of course connect to its mother. As being presented at the CNS conference, new evidence from in-utero fetal brain scans shows, for the first time, that this connection directly affects brain development.
