What changes take place in a pregnant woman's brain?

Mothers often show that they have a <x0-body pregnant” during pregnancy a new way of thinking accompanying pregnancy and a <x2-instinctinent mother”. New scientific research shows that it is not their subjective opinion, but they are correct and that certain physical changes actually occur in the minds of women during pregnancy.

The pregnancy causes long - term changes in the female brain, which, according to Spanish scholars, is likely to evolve and improve the ability to protect and feed her child.

Researchers also used magnetic resonance imaging to compare brain structure to 25 women before and after their first pregnancy.

The results showed that there is a significant decline in gray matter in brain areas associated with social interactions in women after childbirth. These parts of the brain match what are activated when the mother looks at the picture of her baby.

“Brain changes concern the areas of the brain related to the functions needed to manage the memory challenges,” said research co-author Eric Barba, a psychologist-psicoterapeut at Barcelona University.

Although some waiting mothers complain about the power of thought and forget about the pregnant “” researchers say that during pregnancy, women had no change in memory or other thinking functions. This means that the loss of a gray mass does not cause problems in these areas of the brain but only contributes to the ames.

These changes in the brain last at least two years after a woman was born, and researchers suggest that women are likely to adapt to their motherhood.

Researchers have also found that they are able to analyze brain changes to discover that a woman is pregnant and has an emotional attachment to her child. The changes in the minds of women were similar, whether they were pregnant naturally or artificially.

The results of the study were recently published in the medical journal Nature Neuroscience”.
