What do we know about children?They are born helpless, do not speak, can hardly do anything, and grow very quickly. Oh yes, they still have, just scream. But that's not all. We found 26 more facts that prove that children are just some kind of aliens. From the moment of birth until the moment of complete getting used to the potty, the child spends about 8 thousand diapers. 2. There is not a single bacterium in the body of a newborn baby. And only 235 milliliters of blood circulates in his vessels. In the arteries and veins of an adult, recall, 5 liters of blood. 3. In the first two years of a child's life, the total sleep deprivation of parents is approximately six months. In a literal sense - if you add up all the hours that they should have slept, but did not sleep, you get about one and a half thousand hours. Six months, Karl!

Children's foreskin, which remains after circumcision, is used for the manufacture of cosmetics. Forgive us for this fact. 6. Studies have shown that children calm down twice as fast when they hear singing, not just spoken speech. Neurologists say that in the first years of life, children do not dream. 8. Statistics show that babies born prematurely are more likely to become left-handed. 9. Did you know that ... The youngest professional football player is a 20-month-old child. He was admitted to the Belgian club. 10. If during intrauterine development any organ of the fetus is damaged, the fetus sends stem cells to restore the organ. 11. When a child turns one year old, his foot is half his "adult" size. Multiply by two and you get the size of the boots your kid will wear at prom. 12. Babies who are born two weeks ahead of time cannot sweat. Even if they are hot, there will be no perspiration. Gradually, the sweat glands "ripen". First, the forehead begins to sweat, then the chest, then the arms and last of all - the legs. 13. The sex of the baby depends only on the father. The Y chromosome, which "thanks" to which boys are born, is contained in male DNA. There is no such chromosome in a woman's body. Diet, time of day, sex position - none of this matters at all. In the Middle Ages, childhood diseases were treated exclusively with leeches. For example, if the toddler had croup, the leech would be thrust into the child's respiratory tract. 15. Approximately 255 babies are born every minute in the world. That's 4.3 births per second. 16. The length of the intestine of a newborn baby is 3.35 meters. This figure doubles as you get older. 17. Scientists believe that babies who are breastfed for the first three months develop 30 percent more efficiently than babies who are formula fed. At the time of birth, a child's brain contains more than 10 million nerve cells. As they grow older, their number decreases. 19. Children do not remember anything that happened to them in the first three years of their life. Neuroscientists call this phenomenon infantile amnesia. There are several theories about why this is happening, but none of them are 100 percent proven.

Since the birth and throughout the first two years of life in the child there are 73 thousand different changes. The average time for each change is two minutes. Every two minutes the baby changes - the mind is incomprehensible! 23. In the first few days after birth, the baby's skin is so sensitive that it can distinguish between the bristles of different sizes. If the child turns away from the spoon, it means he's full. No, he is not naughty, just fed up. The greatest number of children born from one woman is 69 people. Record put - ta-ladies! - Russian peasant woman. Her name is unknown, only her surname is Vasilyeva. From 1725 to 1765 she gave birth to triplets seven times, 16 times twins, and four times she gave birth to quadrangles. Does your child like to play with you "ku-ku"? Well, when you cover your face with your hands and pretend that you are not. And then - oops, and again you are. This is all because the child's "operative memory" is very short. When you close your face, you do not exist for the baby. He simply forgets that you are there when he does not see you. Out of sight - out of reality.
