Noise and your Baby

Studies show that sounds can penetrate the amniotic sac and reach your fetus developing ears. Chronic loud noise and short intense bursts of sound may cause hearing damage to the fetus before and after birth. Every once in a while it is ok for your baby to hear loud noises coming from a concert for example but repeated exposure that is deafening may pose a danger to your baby's hearing.
