I posted on Facebook last night how excited I was to take our daughter to see the fireworks and my mil called me saying that I was such a horrible person for going to see fireworks because the baby can hear now and she could get scared...lol thoughts.
I learned yesterday that the womb is always at least as loud as a running vacuum cleaner near baby's head! If you're worried, take a pillow to hug -- that's what I was told when I went to see drag races.
If this makes you a horrible person, I would hate to hear her opinions about your approach to care when the baby is out of the womb. I didn't even think about fireworks noise harming my little nugget. I think she'll be ok!
I wouldn't be worried about the sound, but I thought fireworks had been known to cause pregnant women to go in to labor? No, just an old wives tale? I do have a friend that gave birth to her twins super early last year on July 5th....
I went to a concert last week (it was a christian rock band, at a church, so it wasn't hard core), but we were like 5 rows back and it was very loud... I just figured she'd be jamming out with me
Re: Fireworks
