Are you embracing your little one and spending time with him whenever you get the chance? Are you enjoying your small movements and offering as much physical contact as possible? If these relate to you, you are on the right track and you should continue these activities as much as possible. According to the latest research conducted by Nationwide Children's Hospital in Ohio, children's brains develop faster, the more you hug them. Physical contact with parents is essential in the developmental years for the adequate growth and development of children. 125 children born in the hospital were the victims of a study and the results were interesting. The children showed a strong brain by getting more affection from the parents or the hospital staff. Studies have shown that premature babies respond less to physical contact than full-term babies.
The role of oxytocin in the development of the fetal brain
Oxytocin is a unique hormone as well as a neurotransmitter that is secreted from the pituitary gland. Researchers first identified this hormone in 1908 and recognized its role in mammalian delivery. It helps in uterine contractions during labor and lactation. However, scientists have now established the significance of social communication in developing a bond between two people. For this reason, many scientists refer to this chemical as "love hormone". Oxytocin even encourages trust between individuals and it is present in both sexes. When we feel loved or cared for by others, the brain rewards us with oxytocin release.
Recent studies have shown that this hormone is also essential for the development of the fetal brain. It plays an important role in the formation of vital blood vessels in the pituitary gland, which controls a number of sensations, including stress, growth and reproduction. This is why scientists in the early developmental days emphasized physical contact between parents and children.
The convenience of hugging your baby
Learn some of the benefits of hugging and hugging your baby regularly.
Embrace develops the smart child
Recent research has shown that a 20-second hug per day can bring your child increased motor and sensory stimulation for cognitive development. Embrace is a form of skin contact that stimulates the brain to develop into a healthy and strong body. It has been observed that in some Eastern European orphanages many children spend about 22 to 23 hours a day in their beds surrounded by them. They are often out of contact with any human beings. The directors of the orphanages use the recommended bottles to feed the children. In these situations, many children with disabilities suffer from developmental problems, including cognitive development. Researchers have also confirmed that not all types of touch give beneficial results. Gentle hugs and listening can only positively stimulate the brain.
Hugs keep babies healthy
As already identified, a kid’s hug helps secrete oxytocin frequently, thereby boosting the immune system, which lowers plasma levels of thyroid hormones and helps wounds heal faster. Studies suggest that children who have close physical contact with their parents are less likely to get sick than children who are deprived of a hug.
Hugs prevent children from whimsical mood swings
Repeated hugs also have a positive effect on children's emotions. In many cases, hugs received from parents can instantly calm a playful child, although many parents believe that hugging a child in a fit of rage can encourage bad behavior; In fact, it can have a debilitating effect on children. Child counselors always encourage parents to spend more time with their children and engage in physical contact.
So, parents start spending enough time with their kids and hug them whenever you get a chance. It will make your kids emotionally strong, smart and healthy.
