My mother says if I have pictures of babies in my room, it will positively affect my unborn child. Is this an old wives tale or is there some scientific explanation?

How will it affect the baby? Physically? I believe it's just an old wives' tale since the baby's genetic makeup determine everything, like skin and hair colors. Thus, influencing his physical attributes by looking at pictures of babies is impossible. http://www.babycenter.in/x1049954/will-looking-at-a-beautiful-baby-during-pregnancy-make-my-baby-beautiful#ixzz4AXbiMXZR
