National Wear Red Day

Monday, February 2, 2009 by Cindy Wallander

National Wear Red Day is this Friday, February 6.  The idea is for everyone to wear red to raise awareness of heart disease.  A red sweater - a red scarf - red socks....it doesn't matter just as long as you wear something RED.

Hopefully, most people are already aware that heart disease is the #1 killer of American women.  The statistic is that 1 in 4 women will die of heart disease.

A strong healthy heart is very important to you AND to your baby.  Your good health will directly impact your baby's good health.  Keep in mind that the one consistent sound your baby hears 24 hours a day is your HEARTBEAT.

That is why the BabyPlus Prenatal Education system is based on the mother's heartbeat.  This is the first true language your baby understands. The unborn child receives very little stimulation in the uterus. The only sound that it can clearly discern is the maternal heartbeat. By providing the infant with sounds which closely mimic the maternal heartbeat but which vary in subtly increasing ways, the child's brain learns one of the most basic skills of all - discrimination - before she/he is born.

Ladies - wear red this Friday in celebration of your beautiful heart!
