those components that characterize the prenatal development of the child:
\n1) Biological environment:
\n\u2013 The mother’s nutrition and the quality of her food, which is transmitted to the fetus through the placenta and is the main source of its development and growth.
\n\u2013 The mother’s overall health, including her immune system, vital functions, and hormones that directly affect fetal development.
\n\u2013 The placenta and amniotic fluid as a medium that protects the fetus, supplies it with oxygen and nutrients and removes waste.
\n2) Maternal Health:
\n\u2013 The mother must not have any chronic or infectious diseases that may affect the fetus (diabetes, hypertension, and infections).
\n\u2013 There should be no exposure to harmful substances such as unapproved medications, alcohol, smoking, drugs or radiation that can cause developmental abnormalities.
\n\u2013 Medical supervision during pregnancy and periodic examinations are necessary to ensure the safety of the fetus.
\n3) Psychological state of the mother:
\n\u2013 The psychological state of the mother during pregnancy directly affects the fetus as constant stress or depression can lead to the secretion of hormones such as cortisol, which crosses the placenta and affects the nervous system of the fetus.
\n“Conversely, psychological calm and a sense of security support the proper development of the fetus.
\n4) Socio-cultural environment:
\n\u2013 The family and social support that the mother receives during pregnancy.
\n\u2013 Beliefs and habits in nutrition or health that may affect the care of a pregnant woman and the health of her fetus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
