What is the secret of the wonderful smell of newborn babies?

Have you ever smelled a small baby, in its first months?
Everyone who has done this confirms that it is one of the sweetest scents! Why, Terry?

The smell of a baby gives the mother the same feeling that we feel when we are hungry and eat. Or what the addict feels when he gets the substance he is addicted to.

The smell of a newborn is a chemical that draws the mother to the baby and activates the reward area of ​​the brain that activates when we eat something we like or have become addicted to.

Researchers say that when a woman feels, in general, that she wants to “eat” the child in her arms, even if this woman is not his mother, this feeling is normal. It's a normal biological reaction associated with the reward neural area of ​​the brain.

The scientific explanation says that the activation of this area releases in the body the hormone dopamine, which is responsible for a sense of bliss, relaxation and pleasure.

The study shows that the smell of newborns plays a role in the development of emotional responses and motivates the mother to care for the child and encourages her to breastfeed and to protect her child from any harm.
