Excerpt
"During development, sensory processing deficits are associated with disruption of attention, muscle tone development, narrow range for tolerating stress and compromised learning.
Moreover, prenatal stress significantly increased overall withdrawal responses to repetitive tactile stimulation compared to no prenatal stress.
Increased maternal prenatal stress seems to be one of the determinants of temperamental and developmental variation of infants."

Latest research on effects of stress on children. Babies who experience stress in the womb develop symptoms of sensory processing issues. Fascinating insight into possibly the cause of autism and sensory processing disorder. Can the activated genes then be switched off with the right intervention while they are still babies and even possibly while they are still developing in the womb?
