I have a a 3 year old and a 10 month old. Whenever the youngest is crying I sing twinkle twinkle to her and she smiles. It will always stop her crying. I sang it alot when I was pregnant to my other daughter so I was just wondering if she could her me singing when she was in the womb. The first time I sang it, it stopped her crying straight away.

Babies can hear inside the womb, though the sound will be a bit muffled.
When I was pregnant with our daughter, my husband would lay his head on my lap and talk to her. When she was born, she turned toward the sound of his voice. Yes, they hear and, I believe, they remember.

A study in Ireland, using ultrasound observation and measured pulses of sound revealed that babies with normal hearing start moving in reaction to sound around 16 weeks gestational age. This was earlier than previous estimates and occurs about two months before completion of the ear, suggesting that there is more to hearing than the ear alone. Babies seem especially interested in parental voices and begin learning the mother,s native language (the mother tongue) while in the womb.

Absolutely they can. I had a CD of what the outside world sounds like to a baby still in the womb - they can actually distinguish words and everything! We played a certain music for my daughter before she was born, and from Day 1 it always calmed her down when she was upset.

yes babys can hear in the womb,they can hear your heart beat mostly.I bought a cd called sounds from the womb with my first child and even though everything sounds quite muffled your unborn baby can hear alot.They learn to detect your voice and many sounds from in the womb will be recognised at birth,especially its mothers voice.My youngest recognises music that i listened to whilst pregnant with her.All is familiar to a baby as its noises that they have heard all before entering this world!

They done a test on two unborn babies. One was played pop music and the second was played classical, both in different wombs of course. And when the babies were born the preferred the music that was played to them when they were in there mothers tummies. So I think that your kid must have herd you!! It's great being a parent!!!!!!!!

a baby can hear in the womb from approx 16wks so make sure you use the vacuum cleaner loads and lots of loud noises, music is also a good one my youngest who is 9mths loves one particular cd of mine is calms him in mins even with my singing because he was so used to hearing while in the womb x

Yes they can hear as soon as they develop eardrums (however they hear like you do underwater)
They can also FEEL sound from very early on and can pick out rhythms that were repeated in the womb. Like songs, rhymes or moms speaking pattern.

yes absolutely, babies can hear sounds from within the womb, it's part of how they recognise the mother's voice when they're born, music or a familiar voice can often be a comfort to them.

properly i won't be in a position to bend down that a techniques, yet many dads pays attention it after 26 weeks, and a few pays attention it as early as 20. some have extra fulfillment utilising a bathroom paper roll. the toddler's coronary heart fee might desire to be significantly speedier than mom's.
