Ok..so I'm a new father (we're 18wks along now) and we wanted to get some 'belly' headphones and some classical music of some sort (so chime in with a good option for the belly headphones...found a couple but not many)...

So..I stumbled across this Rocakbye Baby Lullaby stuff and maybe I'm just a total dork but it sounds REALLY cool to me...unfortunately the wife is a country fiend so I'm not sure that I could get her to go along with some AC/DC or Nirvana, etc. lol.
 
It has been shown that there is no correlation between playing clasical music for the baby in the womb and the baby's intelligence later on in life, if that's what you are going for.
 
It's also not advised by many doctors as it can easily be played too loud and hurt the childs hearing...my wife's gyno told us that at least
 
Just play good music through speakers(NOT country). If it does something, great! If not, you get to hear good music. I recommend Duke Ellington , and Miles Davis.
 
if you think about what a baby hears already...music is going to be nothing like the way we hear it. babies are in fluid, inside a body with a heartbeat and movement and noises already.

i imagine it would be like stuffing cotton in your ears...putting on headphones that have a heartbeat sound playing, wrapping all that and your entire head in a pillow....then putting headphones with music playing on top.

personally i think those kinds of things (bellyphones) are just ways to bilk soon-to-be parents out of some hard earned money.

So maybe we should buy the discs when he/she's born then? ^_^

I don't want to risk the kid going def over something stupid...I've also read that you need to limit to an hour or less per day...the music is still cool which was my main reason for posting though. ^_^
 
my older one is starting to read and he's a little older than 4. he mostly listened to rap and techno in the womb.
 
Just play the music on regular speakers, no need to the womb-phones.

After the baby is born check out heartbeat lullabies. They have a heartbeat going in the background. Played it for my son on a CD player and you could kind of make it out. Then tired it on my computer one day and then you could really feel it in the bass.

once your child is born, i would expose them to as much music as you can, of all types, all genres. 😀

but, if you like the idea of rock music remade in a more low key way, check out Vitamin String Quartet as well. 😉
 
We have the guns and roses one, I don't really like it but my wife does. Daughter could care less, she falls asleep to any lullaby.
