This is the first episode in a special series on early development. This series is looking at the neurological development that is happening during pregnancy, birth and the early infancy period and how things that happen during these stages can impact the brain years down the road.
This first episode is looking at conception and pregnancy. We are going to take a deep look at fertility problems, maternal health, pregnancy complications and more. Each of these stages plays a role in how your child’s brain will function in the future. If we as a society want to curb this explosion of developmental problems we are seeing we have to back up and figure out where they start.

I looked at a ton of research articles on fertility for this episode, if you want to read what I did just google IVF research articles. I try to sort through a lot of it in the podcast episode but I figured I would list what I think is the most important one here. This paper includes reference to a lot of other studies so if you want to go down the rabbit hole it’s a good place to start.
