Using music? What's on your playlist?

pinkpigeon · May 2011

I'm not one of those ladies who is gung-ho about having music playing during labor. If it's distracting to the doctors, or if we accidentally run out of the house without the iPod, then so be it.

BUT... I have started playing soothing music (my opinion of soothing) and hope DD comes to us recognizing, and being soothed by music.

Do any 2nd time around moms have experience using music? If so, what was your experience?

Also, what songs are you adding to your playlist? I've got some classical (Bach and Vivaldi) as well as some others (Somewhere Over The Rainbow by IZ, Wonderful World by L. Armstrong, some Michael Buble, etc.). Was also thinking about some international music (Peruvian, Native American, etc.).

Steven Halpern's Comfort Zone is AMAZING!! I listen to it every night while I practice my Hypnobirthing techniques.

With my DD, I had a lot of Dave Matthews on my ipod. I get lost in his music (if that makes sense)...it is just a lot of soothing, drawn out songs/instrumental parts.
