Random cool facts I’m just gonna tell you for no reason
Late night things I think about but have no idea how I know them.
So the discovery that we could test a pregnant woman’s blood for male or female DNA to determine the sex of a baby also came with the knowledge that women and their children actually share more than just 50% of their DNA. They discovered that if they only find female DNA in her blood, she’s having a girl. If they find male and female DNA, she’s having a boy. But you only share DNA with your baby in your blood while you are pregnant. Then they discovered that when you are pregnant, your babies DNA mingles itself into your womb, bones, and brain.
Siblings who have shared a womb also share more DNA, because of the fact that your first child left their DNA inside of your womb and they mingle too.
This DNA sharing starts immediately with pregnancy. Even if you had a miscarriage, that babies DNA is in your bones for the rest of your life. My sister lost her child, and when I found this out I went to her in excitement to tell her that even though she lost her baby that she was still a mother down to her bones and it made her so happy she hugged me and cried.
Women’s bodies are literally physically incredible. Even biology is like “I will even change your bones to make you into a mother”
Another random fact is that, it’s kinda awkward as hell to know it but I know it so now you do too. Every man that has came inside of you, his DNA is in your womb.
That sucks. But hey.
Did I say we were incredible? Wait though. there is literally a biological war with mother and baby during pregnancy where both bodies are attacking each other.
The human embryo is the most invasive embryo besides the wombat. That’s why we require a thick endometrial lining to carry a pregnancy. When implantation happens, the embryo releases acids that literally attack and eat away at the uterine lining and at the cellular level, the endometrium has a defensive response to this embryo that’s just eating its way into the womb.
The human embryo is aggressive as hell and takes and takes and takes from the mother. Her body even has an immune reaction to the embryo and sends immune cells to attack it. But then for some unknown reason scientists don’t understand yet, the body just goes “DEFENSES DOWN. We kinda like this thing. Instead of attacking it, let’s just lower her immune system. She’s gonna get sick easier now but it’s cool.” Basically the pregnant female body is like “I don’t know what the actual fuck is going on, but I’ll allow it” while sharing DNA with a fetus down to its bones but then having a constant war with the fetus. The fetus taking so much from mom that it rots her teeth out, and then the fetus sending stem cells to mom to repair damaged organs which is literally insane.
It’s a mess, and it doesn’t really make sense because we are biologically designed to make humans so why is mom and babies bodies attacking each other at a cellular level? We are literally MADE to do this so wtf, It’s like nature just kinda did its best to design us and lowkey rushed things at the end and did a sloppy job when it came to reproduction but CLEARLY it all works well enough that there’s too many damn people on the planet. It’s still lame as hell that we have these bodies that are made to create humans and creating humans can be so damaging to us. Excuse me evolution, that’s fucking rude.
Oh and about evolution.. so for some reason the hips of females keep getting smaller and smaller. Scientists thing we were initially designed to be pregnant for longer than 9 months, we are supposed to have way bigger babies. But we can’t do that because our hips just keep shrinking. So even our full term babies are kinda preemie which is so weird because some newborn babies come out so alert and aware of their surroundings and you wonder
If they were that alert in the womb just like side eyeing every odd sound.
Another thing is, so when a woman is pregnant with a male the body recognizes this male DNA as an intruder and is like “TF IS THAT. MAKE IT FEMALE LIKE THE REST.” And it attacks him with female hormones. The more boys a woman has, the more estrogen will be sent to a male fetus. They believe that this could be a cause of gayness lol. Basically your last son has the highest chance of being gay as hell, because your body sent him estrogen during brain development making it more feminine.
But this is just a theory. There’s proof that moms body is definitely shooting up it’s male fetus with estrogen but no proof it’s gonna have an affect on his sexuality later on.
Just go on about your day knowing that your children literally live inside your brain now. And your bones.
Also for a little while, your liver too. Liver baby. Baby liver.
