When newborn, the ability to hear babies is not perfect, because the middle ear is still filled with fluid, which is a little annoying hearing. But the baby can recognize his mother's voice, the voice that he always hears most clearly when the baby is still in the womb. Therefore, the baby responds better to the sound of his mother than the voices of others. Even a newborn who falls asleep can recognize his mother's voice in only one word, and can activate the brain associated with his language abilities.

This is because the baby's brain cannot process information about 8 to 15 inches. The baby's brain contains around 100 billion neurons, which is why they pay attention to everything around him. It takes several weeks for the baby to distinguish visually between his mother and other adults.
