Kneecap-less wonders
When babies are born they don’t have any kneecaps. Crazy! They fully develop them sometime after six months of age.
They have bigotes in the womb
Babies in the womb grow a mustache that spreads all over their body. The fine hair is called lunago. Usually this hair falls off before they are born and then the baby eats it. Don’t judge, they’re babies!
May babies are bigger
For some strange reason babies born in May tend to weigh more. Babies born in May are usually 200 grams heavier on average than babies born every other month.
Tearless crying
Have you ever noticed that newborns cry without tears sort of like some telenovela actresses? Most babies don’t start making tears until they are about three weeks or older.
Boney critters
Okay, so babies may be born with no kneecaps, but they are also born with more bones than adults. Babies are born with 300 bones while grownups have 206. The decrease in number happens because some bones end up fusing together as babies grow.
You can predict their adult shoe size
When a baby is 1 year old, their foot is half the size of what their adult foot will measure.
They double their size PRONTO
Most babies are twice their birth weight by the time they are 6 months old.
From gas to you're a gas
Up until they are about 1 month old, if a baby smiles it’s probably gas. After that, if they smile when you are trying to make them smile it’s because they think you’re a gas!
All eyes
A baby is born with eyes that are about 75 percent the size that their adult eyes will be. That explains why some babies look like they are all eyes.
They have more taste than adults do
Okay, well technically they have more taste buds than adults. Babies are born with taste buds on the back, sides and roof of their mouths as well as on their tongues. Eventually the extra taste buds go bye bye.
