A groundbreaking 10‑year study found that kids whose moms experienced high levels of stress during pregnancy were far more likely to struggle with behavioral challenges at ages 7–10.
Here’s why ⬇️
👉 During pregnancy, your baby’s nervous system is literally wiring itself at lightning speed — over 1 million neural connections every second.
👉 Stress hormones like cortisol can cross the placenta, “programming” your baby’s developing brain and setting patterns that may last well into childhood.
👉 That’s why behaviors like trouble sleeping, big emotions, and focus struggles often have their roots in the prenatal period.
👉 We don't want any mom guilt here! Unfortunately, we can't control the stress we are under, especially during pregnancy. What we can control is how we adapt to it! So if you're pregnant now, let's get your nervous system checked!
👉 AND if your child is the one who struggles with behavioral challenges now, it's not too late. Let's get their nervous system checked and help them adapt too! 🫶
Here's the good news? Early support makes a massive difference. At Morman Family Chiropractic, we use INSiGHT scans to see how your and your child’s nervous system is truly functioning, and help get things back on track.
