    • People have different expectations and they’re reasonable. In my case I’ve postponed getting married because I like to be on my own. People are asking when I’m getting married😀

    • You had two to go. Only one because one question was repeated.
      Number 5: Correct answer is not displayed well. When babies are born, they don’t have any bacteria in their body.

  10. The baby can starts sucking his fingers before birth. I saw a movie that shows the evolution of the baby in the womb. It was incredible.( It seems that you have the same question(3 and 6) twice, but with different answers. Am I wrong?)

  11. I got 10 of 11 but I am going to argue that your answer for question 7 is wrong.

    The mother consumes food, it passes into her digestive tack and is then passed to the baby. By definition, food breaks down or digestion offers in the mouth.

    Loved the quiz overall!

      It’s true digestion begins in the mouth where food I broken into finer particles. But, the actual eating of food starts with the child. Here is the info from Mother Junction:

      Babies eat before their mother, much like after they are born. The babies take in the nutrients they need by using the umbilical cord and leave the rest for the mother. That’s why it is critical for mothers to take a healthy diet during pregnancy.
