Many years ago, pregnant women just did what was natural with little thought to nutrition or outside influences. When prenatal vitamins were first suggested, I'm sure that women were thinking that it was a fad, a scam or a money making scheme. Doctors didn't know about how folic acid impacted a developing baby. Now we know how essential it is during pregnancy and what birth defects it can prevent. However, I should point out that folic acid does not guarantee the prevention of birth defects but increases the odds they will prevented.
Today, taking a prenatal vitamin isn't given a second thought and is strongly encouraged for many reasons learned over the years. Why wouldn't using a prenatal curriculum be the same? We are learning more and more about the prenatal environment every day.
It is safe to assume that influencing a baby's cognitive development during fetal stages can be one such factor. The realization that learning in the womb actually takes place and that learning begins before birth is giving way to prenatal education in mainstream ideas.
The brain is a complex organ and scientists only know a fraction about it and its functions. To push aside an idea is a little premature. Using a prenatal curriculum during pregnancy has so many great benefits. BabyPlus doesn't guarantee a genius baby, a perfect sleeper or a highly gifted child, but it does increase the odds of strengthening the cognitive blueprint.
A lot of focus goes into pregnancy like what to eat or drink. A lot of focus also goes into after the baby is born like names or choosing whether or not to breastfeed. But what about focusing on positively influencing the womb environment during development?
So many different things happen during the stages of fetal development, and so many factors can affect development that it is natural to want to have only positive actions during such a critical time.
As a mom, you want to do everything to protect your children from negative influences. So what better way to positively influence your baby than to introduce an element that is already present in the womb during development--your heartbeat.
BabyPlus is a simple set of sounds similar to the mother's heartbeat, which is a constant element in the womb. By stimulating learning during the important stages of fetal development, a foundation for learning throughout life is reinforced--and what could be more positive than that?
BabyPlus - this mom-to-be is due any day, and she has been using BabyPlus during her pregnancy...
The BabyPlus curriculum is a series of 16 naturally derived sounds that resemble a mother's heartbeat. The rhythm of the sounds increases incrementally as the pregnancy progresses. The BabyPlus lessons introduce your child to a sequential learning process, built upon the natural rhythms of their own environment.
The importance of this prenatal "break through" is the impact on cognitive development. Much like a prenatal vitamin impacts physical development, the BabyPlus lessons impact cognitive development.

Dear little one,
I am 18 weeks pregnant today and cannot believe we're almost halfway to meeting each other!
I've done everything I know to give you the best start in life. I have eaten well, taken prenatal vitamins, exercised and have made sure I make time every day to relax. I was looking through a pregnancy magazine at the doctor's office and saw an advertisement for The BabyPlus Prenatal Education System. Of course, I was intrigued. When I went home, I went online to
www.babyplus.com and did a little research. Wow! There was a lot of great information and testimonials from other parents who used it with their babies and have seen wonderful results! There were so many common benefits like their babies being self soothing, more adaptable and hitting their developmental milestones early.
I also read how it works and it made total sense to me! Basically, BabyPlus is the simplest form of sound--a single beat. This encourages and strengthens the foundation of learning during the most important stages of your development. After all, you hear my heartbeat 24 hours a day and the sound is relevant to your environment. It makes complete sense to me and I can't wait to begin using it!
I think the most exciting part is knowing that I am giving you a wonderful gift before you are even born!
Love,
Your Mommy

BabyPlus is not a toy - it is a profound educational tool, and the first step in your child's lifelong cognitive development.
BabyPlus was developed by Dr. Brent Logan, a developmental psychologist who directs the Prenatal Institute, Seattle, WA. Dr. Logan's 25 years of research have demonstrated that prenatal learning using a curriculum based on the maternal placental heartbeat is the most effective means of communicating with your developing child.

I am sure you have heard of it before, but are still wondering what is Twitter really? Twitter is a micro blogging site where you can follow other moms, dads and baby bloggers to get the information you want without sorting through hundreds of websites. Twitter is a great tool to use when you want to get information fast. You can follow certain people and see what they are talking about in a 140 character micro blog.
You can find us @BabyPlus on Twitter and we cover everything from breast feeding, having a smart baby, infant development and more. So why should you tweet? There are many reasons, but one that stands out the most is the speed at which you connect with others.
We love Twitter because you can ask questions and get answers nearly instantaneously. For instance, we posted this on Twitter "Do you have questions about BabyPlus? We want to know, just @ reply us." From that we had someone ask about how to adjust the belly strap and we were able to answer them in seconds. Twitter can actually be faster than email.
If you've never tried Twitter, give it a chance and start following us. Let us know what your @name is so we can follow you.
Well, this seems to be a hot topic for debate on blogs all over the Internet. Everyone has an opinion...
From the perspective of the BabyPlus Company, however, this is more about developing your child for a lifetime of learning.We understand the concept of pushing kids too hard; we do not support that idea. Rather, we support the idea of making sure your baby has all the developmental tools available to him or her during your pregnancy.
The prenatal environment is critical to the long-term health of your baby. Keep in
mind, this short amount of time in your womb can create the structure for your baby's cognitive and physical development - not just as an infant but well into the schooling years and beyond.
Your womb is the perfect classroom! The benefits are many -
calmer, happier, brighter - and the lifelong learning opportunity is not to be missed.

I absolutely love the Proctor and Gamble commercials being shown during the Olympics thanking moms for everything they have done. I think all moms deserve a little extra thanks now and then, too!
These families sacrifice a tremendous amount of time and money in hopes that their child will obtain Olympic gold. There is a lot of dedication and hard work on both parts from a very young age--maybe even prenatally with eating right, exercising and taking care of mom during pregnancy. However, I guarantee that none of these mothers took prenatal vitamins for the sole purpose of producing an Olympian! They took prenatal vitamins as part of an overall prenatal program for the health of their baby.
There are many components of a good prenatal program, such as nutrition, exercise, mental health and prenatal learning. It is a concept that is growing because so many are realizing the benefits of encouraging cognitive development during the important stages of fetal development. Prenatal education does not push your baby to be smarter but strengthens his or her foundation for a lifetime of learning.
That's why we say that BabyPlus no more produces a genius than taking a prenatal vitamin produces a body builder--or in this case, an Olympic athlete!
Winter Safety Tips - Part 1(These valuable tips on how to keep your child safe and warm this winter were provided by the
American Academy of Pediatrics.)
Whether winter brings severe storms, a light dusting or just cold temps, the
American Academy of Pediatrics has some valuable tips on how to keep your child safe and warm.
What to Wear: - Dress infants and children warmly for outdoor activities. Several thin layers will keep them dry and warm. Clothing for children should consist of thermal long johns, turtlenecks, one or two shirts, pants, sweater, coat, warm socks, boots, gloves or mittens, and a hat.
- The rule of thumb for older babies and young children is to dress them in one more layer of clothing than an adult would wear in the same conditions.
- Blankets, quilts, pillows, sheepskins and other loose bedding may contribute to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and should be kept out of an infant's sleeping
environment. Sleep clothing like one-piece sleepers is preferred. - If a blanket must be used to keep a sleeping infant warm, it should be tucked in around the crib mattress, reaching only as far as your baby's chest, so the infant's face is less likely to become covered by bedding.
Hypothermia:- Hypothermia develops when a child's temperature falls below normal due to exposure to cold. It often happens when a youngster is playing outdoors in extremely cold weather without wearing proper clothing.
- As hypothermia sets in, the child may shiver and become lethargic and clumsy. His speech may become slurred and his body temperature will decline.
- If you suspect your child is hypothermic, call 911 at once. Until help arrives, take the child indoors, remove any wet clothing, and wrap him in blankets or warm clothes.
Frostbite:- Frostbite happens when the skin and outer tissues become frozen. This condition tends to happen on extremities like the fingers, toes, ears and nose. They may become pale, gray and blistered. At the same time, the child may complain that her skin burns or has become numb.
- Set reasonable time limits on outdoor play. Have children come inside periodically to warm up.
- If frostbite occurs, bring the child indoors and place the frostbitten parts of her body in warm (not hot) water. Warm washcloths may be applied to frostbitten nose, ears and lips.
- Do not rub the frozen areas.
- After a few minutes, dry and cover him with clothing or blankets. Give him something warm to drink.
- If the numbness continues for more than a few minutes, call your doctor.
Pregnancy is a very important time. So much is going on and you can influence a lot through nutrition, exercise and prenatal learning.
Prenatal learning is becoming more mainstream and can positively influence your baby's cognitive development during the time of very important fetal growth. The BabyPlus Prenatal Education System is the perfect tool for your baby's prenatal journey which will influence him or her intellectually, developmentally, creatively and emotionally from the time they are born.
BabyPlus consists of a series of 16 simple sounds that resemble a mother's heartbeat. The rhythm of the sounds increases incrementally as the pregnancy progresses. The BabyPlus pattern introduces your little one to a sequential learning process built upon the natural rhythms relevant to their own environment.
This "auditory exercise" strengthens learning ability during the developmental period when the advantages will be most significant and enduring for a child.
He or she learns to discriminate between the sound coming from the mother and those from BabyPlus. In other words, learning has begun.
Shannon Miller's son is 3 months old already! Like all parents, she is realizing that the time
goes by so quickly. After the months of eager anticipation, all of sudden the months and weeks rush by! We eagerly anticipate Shannon's comments about baby development after birth - here they are:
"Rocco will be 3 months old in a few days and he is doing so well. I almost cried when I had to start boxing up some of the outfits that he's grown out of. He's getting so big! Everyone keeps telling us how mature and alert he is.
Of course, we think he's the greatest anyway.
So i'll gush about him just a bit, because that's what mom's do. He is holding his head up and pushing his chest up so well during tummy time and
loves to kick the rattles on his play mat. Of course, his favorite is story time with Daddy before he goes to bed. He loves to smile and "talk" to us and is still nursing well. When daddy gives him a bottle he doesn't have any trouble adjusting.
He is still doing well at night, knock on wood. He regularly sleeps from his 10pm feeding until 7am when I get him up for breakfast. (How exciting is that?!) He's so much more alert now, focusing on faces, following sounds and smiling at mom and dad. He loves watching the trees go by when we walk in the park and is still trying to figure out what exactly that monster is that keeps breathing near him. (Otherwise known as our 120lb dog, Indy)
Every day there is something new. And as difficult as it sometimes gets to balance work, sanity and a new baby, it's so worth it!"Great sleeping habits, great feeding habits, very interactive and responsive - yep, definitely a BabyPlus baby! We are excited to be a part of Shannon's experience with her baby!

We are back from CES - Las Vegas!
The Consumer Electronics Show has concluded in Las Vegas, and we were beyond thrilled with our experience.
This year was the first year for the "Mommy Tech" area. The BabyPlus Prenatal Education System was a perfect fit for "Mommy Tech." We had so many great visitors to our booth. Several representatives from countries all over
the world are as excited as we are! Savvy parents know that the prenatal period is critical - and did we ever hear about it!
The study of the prenatal environment is not new, and some of the recent great findings just confirm what is already known.Shannon Miller spoke on behalf of BabyPlus. She is seeing tangible benefits in her son - such as he was sleeping through the night at 6 weeks and he has been very alert.
Prenatal care is important during the pregnancy trimesters. The stages of development of a fetus are fascinating and crucial at the same time. BabyPlus will have a profound and important impact on your baby.
And, with the hundreds of people who visited our BabyPlus booth, we know that infant development is a priority!
Your child will have an amazing life....This is just one of the many, many great emails we receive from BabyPlus parents all over the world. Imagine what our world could be like in 20 years if
all teachers were saying things like this about their students!
"Hi, my child is now four, and I consistently hear from her preschool teachers, who are very
experienced - her PK3 teacher last year has taught for 35 years and has a masters degree - that she is unique even among the other very bright children that they work with. They can't say enough good things about her. This is a quote from her teacher at her summer school, where she has gone every summer since age 2: " I hope I get to know her in 20 years. She really stands out among all the children that I have worked with. She will have an amazing life and contribute to many people along the way. Enjoy the ride."
It is hard to quantify what makes her so different from the other children. It is not just pure academics but an overall higher level of engagement with the world and everyone around her. We have seen this since birth.
I would say she has outrageous enthusiasm for life, and she came into the world a complete little person. It's like there is more of her than you would expect, and it's easy to forget that she is in such a tiny body."
YOU can directly impact the future of your child. Baby development after birth is directly impacted by your prenatal care. Include BabyPlus as your prenatal care curriculum and experience the tangible benefits - just like parents all over the world!
Resolution # 4 - find out WHY should I use BabyPlus?Back to
www.babyplus.com today - I want to know WHY I should use BabyPlus. The information on the website, plus the parent testimonials and the videos have convinced me, but I want to read just a little bit more...
That makes sense - the brain is at its most receptive while it is developing, plus I know I will
love the bonding experience before baby is delivered!
I am ready to buy BabyPlus! On to Resolution # 5 - purchase BabyPlus Prenatal Education System.
Resolution # 5 - purchase BabyPlus Prenatal Education System.
Well, I have completed all my research. I read about the science behind BabyPlus, I read testimonials from other parents who have used BabyPlus, I watched videos of BabyPlus families, and I researched
WHY I should use the BabyPlus during my pregnancy.
Today is the day I buy the most amazing gift for my developing baby - a gift of a lifetime!
It is an accepted fact by physicians, educators and scientists alike that a child’s early environment plays a crucial role in both physical and cognitive development. Not only are the
surroundings and inputs after birth important, the prenatal environment also plays a central role for a child’s long-term physical health and impacts a child’s lifelong learning ability and school readiness.
Much like a prenatal vitamin is nutritional and enriches physical development, years of subjective evidence and preliminary scientific data have suggested that the child’s auditory environment, both prenatal and after birth, can have a significant positive effect on cognitive development.
The earliest environment for your child is prenatal....and what you do during this period will impact your baby - for his or her lifetime.
Then, we received a follow-up email from the baby's father:
In his own words:
"He is doing very well with everything we’re teaching him. He can read several hundred words in both English and German. He likes pointing to words that he knows both in the books that are familiar to him as well as texts, pieces of paper etc. that he’s never seen before. He also likes putting his little plastic toy animals on the appropriate word cards. It’s very cute."
Clearly this family knows the importance of the benefits of learning in the womb, fetal development in stages, and critical times in child development.
Congratulations to this little boy and all his cousins - they have a great start!
