 [ Symptoms ] at what age does an unborn baby begin to experience any human related mental emotionsawarenessphysical feelings  can you please state sources and research that helped you in the conclusion of your answer  thank you very much [ Disease ] well there is really no good answer to your question it is not really possible to study fetuses in terms of their emotions or awareness it has long been known that a fetus will withdraw from painful stimuli for example if you touch a fetus with a needle it may flinch but whether that is simply a motor reflex or is a sign of greater cognition is not known unfortunately we can not exactly climb into the womb and ask the fetus how it is feeling certain faiths have particular beliefs about the time at which an embryo or fetus is endowed with a soul  some faiths believe this happens at conception other faiths believe this happens at birth you will find a wide range of philosophies on this topic in terms of the science we just do not know i wish i could cite some studies for you but there are not any that i know of wishing you all the best
