About Baby

No knee caps – Know about knee caps

Babies when born have knee caps but these do not come if their X – ray is taken. The reason is because their knee caps during the early stages of life are cartilages. Moreover this continues for coming few years.

Infantile Amnesia

Better immunity with mother’s milk

Babies who are breastfed for up to three months continuously have better immunity and comparatively higher congenital development than other babies who are breastfed for lesser time duration.

Forgetting the mess babies create

Babies when grow up usually forget the memories of the first three years of their life, hence all the struggles and annoyances your baby has put you through, he/she will eventually forget. They remember absolutely nothing!

Loving female voice
