While breastmilk is still the food of choice for a baby, formulas containing LCPs are the next best option available. If DHA-enriched milks are not given, then a formula-fed baby shows a fall in brain levels of DHA during the first 40 weeks of life outside the womb, rather than the increase that occurs with breastfed babies.
Recognition of language and speech starts from before birth and continues up until around 10 years of age. The optimum time for learning a foreign language is before the age of 6, however. It then becomes increasingly difficult to master the new sounds that form the basis of different cultures.
The Chinese Birth Calendar is a chart that was supposedly discovered approximately seven hundred years ago in Beijing and currently resides at the Beijing Institute of Science. This calendar is said to predict the fetus’s gender by factoring together maternal age and the month in which the mother conceived. We first heard of this chart/calendar from our sister-in-law, who explained to us that she had heard that the calendar accurately predicts gender 99 percent of the time. This obviously piqued our interest. Whenever you hear that something is 99 percent accurate, you pay attention.
