8 traits babies inherit from their mother
While you wait for the arrival of your new baby, you will probably wonder not only what it will be like, what will it have of you?
Your baby can inherit much more than just hair color and physical characteristics from his parents. As you wait for your new baby to arrive, you are probably wondering not only what they will be like, but also how they will act, talk, walk, and more. Fortunately, studying genetics has allowed us to determine which of these traits come from which parent, so you can pinpoint exactly who got those little rosy cheeks dimpled from.
There are some traits that babies can inherit from their mother. Next we are going to talk to you about them so that in this way, you can begin to imagine what your little baby will be like as soon as you have him in your arms.

SLEEPING STYLE
Between endlessly tossing and turning, insomnia , and even being a fan of naps, babies can take them from the mother during naps and turn them into their own sleeping habits for life. Monkey looks monkey does!
HAIR COLOR
While it is highly likely that the baby inherits the dominant genes over the recessive ones, the color of a mother’s hair can also say a lot about what your little one’s hair will look like.
HAIR TEXTURE
Like hair color, your little one is more likely to inherit his mother’s hair texture over his father , so your curls could definitely be passed on to baby!
PERSONALITY TEMPLE
Will your little one not stop crying or screaming? You may have to thank (or blame) for that! While her environment plays a role in this, new studies have indicated that genetic makeup may play a larger role in your baby’s temperament.
HEALTHY EATING HABITS
What you feed your body and your baby during pregnancy is not only important while in the womb , it could have lifelong effects on your little one! A study done in rats showed that a poor diet in pregnancy could affect a gene related to insulin production , which could increase your risk of type 2 diabetes later in life. While the same study has yet to be tested in humans, it’s best to be safe!
DOMINANT HANDS
While having two left-handed parents could guarantee that your baby is left-handed too, if only the mother is left-handed, the baby is likely to be too!
MIGRAINES
If you suffer from migraines , there could be a greater chance that your little one will have them too one day.
INTELLIGENCE
A new study shows that because intelligence is transferred to the baby with two X chromosomes from the mother and one from the father, this could have an effect on the baby’s intelligence level . A second study showed that regardless of education, race, and socioeconomic class, a mother’s IQ level could be a good indicator for a baby’s.
In most cases, babies are a perfectly complex mix of both parents , but there are still more than a few things they could learn from mom or dad. Does your little one have any traits of yours? What is worth remembering is that although these traits can be inherited from the mother, the genetics that create a baby is tremendously complex, so there may be traits that he inherits from you and others that his father inherits.
The reality is that your baby, when he is in your arms, will seem to you that he is the most wonderful being in the world and in the end, you will only fight to know who the little one resembles the most. It is so precious that you will both want it to look like you!
