I have all the paperwork upstairs. I'm really curious to know the results they get! They do saliva samples and behavioral surveys with me, and in 4 weeks (at 34 weeks) they will do a 4d ultrasound for about an hour to measure her response to external stimulus (they said they use a restaurant type buzzer on my belly and watch her response).</p> <p>then, they want samples of her meconium (yuck) and other poopy diapers after she's born-few months old, and will also meet with us to monitor her behavior and all that. so interesting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-your-baby-knows-when-youre-hurtangryetc#post-225316 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 12:41:46 +0000 banana 225316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: Wow, interesting! I'm curious to hear about the results! Is this a long term study? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-your-baby-knows-when-youre-hurtangryetc#post-225312 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 12:40:34 +0000 sorrycharlie 225312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always feel terrible when I'm upset, wondering if she knows.</p> <p>I'm actually participating in a study through my hospital throughout my pregnancy and afterward of how my anxiety and/or depression affects her development! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-your-baby-knows-when-youre-hurtangryetc#post-225158 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 11:31:52 +0000 JessicaMcB 225158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Your poor noggin! I find that if I'm stressed out about baby girl then she won't move around because she's a stinker. But if I'm stressed out about random external things (like my BIL going on and on about how much he hated me yesterday and me thinking "My in-laws are nuts if they think I'm going to let him be around my kid.") then she freaks out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-your-baby-knows-when-youre-hurtangryetc#post-224359 Tue, 17 Jul 2012 19:51:52 +0000 Boogs 224359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish he did so he would actually calm down when he's driving me bonkers and nearly to tears at times, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-your-baby-knows-when-youre-hurtangryetc#post-224328 Tue, 17 Jul 2012 19:15:14 +0000 chopsuey 224328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessLC: @banana: thanks!!

Like she doesn't want to make a move because she is stressed out or upset too! Poor thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-your-baby-knows-when-youre-hurtangryetc#post-224262 Tue, 17 Jul 2012 17:43:16 +0000 chopsuey 224262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went out with my LO today, and right when I was about to get LO out of her car seat it started POURING rain. Like torrential style!</p> <p>My driver side door was still open so I shut LO's door, and jumped into the driver's seat. Ugh. While getting into the car, I slammed the top of my forehead against my car door and almost had a cow when I saw and felt that my head had a dent in it! </p> <p>It hurt so much that tears just started falling from my eyes. I sat in the car for a bit trying to calm myself down and thought it was so wild when the baby in my belly started moving around like crazy. </p> <p>I guess s/he knew I was in pain? </p> <p>Is your baby more active when you're distressed? </p>
