Canadian study says: the mother of a boy is not easy to get amnesia

Release date: 2007-12-20

A recent Canadian study suggests that mothers of sons may have a lower risk of experiencing memory issues compared to mothers of daughters. Researchers from Simon Fraser University in British Columbia conducted a 18-month experiment tracking 39 pregnant women in the Vancouver area. These participants underwent eight comprehensive cognitive tests throughout their pregnancy and into the postpartum period. The results revealed that mothers of boys performed significantly better in tasks related to hearing, computation, and visual memory than mothers of girls. Dr. Neil Watson, a psychology professor at the university, noted that while scientists have long studied the impact of pregnancy on memory and cognitive function, this research highlights an intriguing possibility — that the gender of the child may influence a mother’s cognitive abilities through unknown biological factors. This finding challenges previous assumptions and opens new avenues for understanding how pregnancy affects the brain. The study, which will be published in the prestigious medical journal *Neurology Report*, is considered a significant step forward in the field of maternal cognition research. While more studies are needed to confirm these findings, the results suggest that the sex of the child might play a role in shaping a mother’s mental performance during and after pregnancy. — Midi Medical Network
