Fetal Antecedents of Infant Temperament.
DiPietro, Janet A.; And Others
Child Development, v67 n5 p2568-83 Oct 1996
Examined fetal heart rate and movement in 31 healthy fetuses from 20 weeks through birth and at age 6 months. Found that more active fetuses were more difficult, unpredictable, unadaptable, and active as infants that were less active fetuses, and that higher fetal heart rate was associated with lower emotional tone, activity level, and predictability.
