Some women worry that if they improve the brain’s development the baby’s head will be larger, thereby causing an increase in the risk of delivery problems. In fact, there is reason to believe the opposite is true. Prenatal sound stimulation has led to shorter and less painful labor periods, a lower number of Cesarean section deliveries, and a greater number of non-traumatic births.6 In addition, a baby who experiences prenatal stimulation tends to:

Be calmer and more alert

Be happier and cry less

Have a longer attention span

Be stronger and have better coordination

Lift his or her head up earlier and stand earlier

Walk earlier

Talk earlier

Have more self-confidence7

INSTRUCTIONS (You will need your own CD/Cassette player) Remember, by the end of the fifth month your unborn baby begins to hear, and by the sixth month her ability to learn increases significantly. It is now time to start stimulating your baby. Keep in mind that your baby is most alert during the evening hours so you may want to play music or talk to her a few more times. But remember, she also has to rest.

To Play Music to Your Unborn Baby (Please refer to diagrams on P. 20-22)

The best time to play the music is once in the morning and once in the evening, for a period of 5-10 minutes, around the same time each day. Be careful not to play the music too long or too frequently, as your unborn baby also needs to rest. However, you will probably find that your baby will be very active and obviously awake during the evening.

Do not play the same music over and over again. It is believed that if your baby hears the same thing repeatedly, she will eventually ignore it. However, periodic repetition of the same music is advisable. In some cases when the music was played after the baby was born, the newborn seemed to recognize the melody.

Therefore, we suggest playing different music during each session in a single day, and replaying it two or three days later. We also suggest that you keep a schedule for the music you have played showing the date, music played, and times it was played. (We’ve provided you with a starter schedule on P.23 in this booklet.)

Now, simply follow these easy steps. (See diagrams P.20-22)

1.Connect the cable from the Fetal Speakers to your own CD/Cassette player. Use the adapter if you want to listen to the music at the same time.

2.Insert the enclosed CD or cassette of classical music.

3.Position the speakers against your belly. You will want to adjust the position of the speakers depending on what month of your pregnancy you are in. You should be able to tell where your baby’s head is by where you feel her kicking most frequently. You may tuck the speakers into your clothing or use the BébéSounds® maternity belt to hold them in place.

4.Play the music for approximately 10 minutes at a time and alternate the selections you play. Use the schedule included in this booklet as a record of what selections you have played and how frequently you played them.
