Talking to your unborn baby

Here is a thought, I wonder how may of you guys believe your unborn child can hear you talk to them in the womb? I talked to my wife’s belly many a night.

There is some science behind this (of course SCIENCE). Noises from outside your body are more muffled but they also make it through surprisingly clearly, says Robert Abrams, a fetal physiologist in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at University of Florida. Low frequency sounds, such as those above middle C, tend to be more audible than higher frequency ones. Men's voices, for instance, come through clearer than women's, and music also is easily recognizable.

I think this is a great thing to do to begin to interact with your child. There are plenty of opportunities later, but why wait?
