This demonstation was in one of the videos on pre-natal development.It's been a
long
time.And I do not recall
the specifics as to the developmental period.But they were able to monitor heartbeats
of
both mom and
fetus and soime positive relationship was observed.It might not have been an

bur certainly a directional synchronicity. Hope this helps.
