Read Davis & Thompson (2014)

Davis & Thompson (2014)

Watch the video What Babies Learn Before They are Born, I suggest completing this handout  while watching the video.

Watch the video Prenatal to Birth (the video is available from BMCC’s Library video data base Films on Demand, follow the steps on this handout or in this video to locate the video; I suggest completing this handout as you watch the video)

Include specific references to the videos and readings from the to answer the questions below:

Your best friend is pregnant. She asks you for advice because she knows you are taking ECE 209.  Your friend wants to know:

    1. After her baby is born, what impact will the prenatal period have on:
      1. Her baby?
      2. Her and her partner/ family?
    2. What she should do as a pregnant womyn (this is an alternate, feminist spelling of woman) during the COVID-19 crisis? Why?
    3. Based on fetal origins theory, what advise would you give your friend while she is pregnant?
