    #107 How Babies Learn Language
    Jul 1 2025

    I have to say, I think this is a pretty cool episode!

    Meet Dr. Drew Weatherhead. She's an Associate Professor at Dalhousie University and she specializes in early childhood language and social cognitive development. Her research focuses on infants and young children learn to communicate, understand others, and navigate the social world.

    in this episode, Dr. Weatherhead is answering questions like:

    • What do babies remember from the womb?
    • What do newborns already know about language?
    • How babies learn and remember words

    and more!

    It's super interesting, so take a listen!


    And PS - Dr. Weatherhead and her team are always looking for study participants! Check out their studies and consider participating so you and your little one can help shape how we can support baby language development. See info below to grab more information.

    Does how you're carrying Baby in pregnancy actually predict their gender?

    Lastly, but perhaps what many individuals who are pregnant worry about often... Is lying on your back during your pregnancy really that harmful??

    We're looking at what the research says and discussing! Join in :)

    If you are pregnant and preparing for childbirth, it's very likely you have questions and/or are worried about tearing or needing an episiotomy as you push Baby out.
