InfantsIt was a wonderful and magical time. People tend to be curious about factors such as the baby's birth time and weight, and even give some superstitious claims, such as the difference between children born during the day and at night, the relationship between weight at birth and IQ, etc. However, are these claims reliable?This article will help readers understand whether the number of pounds and taels at the time of birth of a baby implies an IQ level, as well as the optimal weight of the baby at birth.
In folklore, there is a saying that children born during the day are full of yang energy and good luck, so they are not prone to illness and are relatively healthy. In addition, there are those who believe that it is better for a child to be born in the morning or noon on the grounds that:MaternityAfter a night's rest, I was full of energy and strength when I delivered in the morning. These are the sayings in the everydaylifeIt has been passed down for a long time, but the scientific evidence does not support it.
First of all,MaternityWhether or not you are energetic when you deliver labor in the morning is not directly related to the time. Pregnant womenPhysical and mental state can be affected by a variety of factors, such as prenatal restDiet, emotions, etc. Moreover, the morning is a busy time in the hospital, and the noisy surroundings may be affectedPregnant womenemotions that interfere with the production process.
Secondly, although there is no scientific basis to prove any special significance to the time of the child's birth, there is still a certain regularity in the time of birth. According to a study of more than 5 million newborns, normal births are most common at 4 a.m. and are more likely to be born on weekdays. If it is a spontaneous birth, but it requires laborMidwiferyBirths are usually between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. If it is to induce laborChildbirthchildren are usually born between 11 and 12 o'clock at night, and usually from Tuesday to Friday. A child born by caesarean section is usually born between 9 and 11 a.m. on weekdays.
To sum up, the time of birth of a baby does not prove its fate or the quality of its health. Your baby's health and safety are the most important thing.
Some people believe that the weight of a baby at birth is a direct reflection of his or her IQ, i.e. the heavier the heavier, the smarter. In fact, there is indeed a correlation between birth weight and IQ, but it is not said that the heavier the weight, the better, nor is it an absolute rule. There are other factors that need to be taken into account for the specific relationship.

First of all, a baby's IQ is not only related to the weight at birth, but also affected by a variety of factors such as genetics and environment.

What is the best weight for a baby to be born?In fact, there is no set standard for optimal weight, as every baby's growth and development is different.
In general, the normal weight at birth is generally 25-4.0 kg. This range is based on the global average newborn weight. Less than 25 kg for babies is considered lowBirth weightchildren, and higher than 40 kg baby is considered largeBirth weightChild.
