The science of Ayurveda strongly states that the mental status of the mother has a strong influence on foetal health. This does not start from the time of conception. Instead from the time of development of the ovum itself all the mental conditions of the mother start affecting the foetal health. In this busy urban life mental health of the mother is given less importance. Most of the women, including pregnant ladies are under stress in present scenario. Hence awareness regarding the impact of the mental status of the mother on the fetus may help the society to prevent the ill effects of maternal stress on the fetus.
