Did you know that inside the mother’s womb, the fetus experiences a whole new world of sensations and even responds to external stimuli, including dreaming?
From week 28 onwards, fetal sleep phases can be differentiated: alternating moments of calm, when the heart beats slower and the body rests, with moments of movement. These periods of activity and rest come and go without a regular pattern. It is believed that the mother’s hormonal secretions, the amount of glucose supplied by her blood, and even her lifestyle influence these periods of tranquility and agitation.
When does active sleep begin? From week 30, active sleep appears, equivalent to REM sleep in adults, which is the phase when most dreams occur. Around the eighth month, the fetus begins to regularly alternate between agitated and relaxed sleep phases. During early active sleep, the fetus’s eyes “flutter” under the eyelids and it makes repeated gestures.
The recording of these electrical phenomena confirms that the brain is highly active. This allows us to affirm that the fetus in the womb has all the necessary components to dream: adequate brain electrical activity and the presence of stimuli that would form the content of dreams.
