Does playing music for baby in womb help brain development?

There’s good research to support this, although I believe it’s not exclusive to classical music. Babies can also recognise a song they’ve repeatedly heard in the womb and be soothed by it☺️

My husband has a theory that our little boy is quite good at maths and enjoys stories because that's all he heard when I was pregnant (teacher).

I’m not really sure but what I will say is I used to play Natasha beddingfield ‘unwritten’ in the car, really loud (when I was pregnant). I used to play it when I was really stressed and needed to just blast a song to escape for a few minuets and it used to work😂now, anytime my son is crying or we need to get him to sleep we play this song and he instantly calms down. I don’t know if it’s just a coincidence or whether it released some kind of hormone when I used to play it in the car. FYI we figured this song does the trick because I had a playlist playing when he was a newborn and he was crying and when this song came on he stopped xx

I played violins for my girl & that’s what puts her to sleep (Lindsey sterling)

i do nothing but listen to music and my partner is the same and our friends who i spent a lot of time around, and now if we’re in the car she only sleeps to dnb music cause that’s what we like 😭

Idk but I will say my first child I did this and he is definitely musically talented. He could not sing with words but you knew what he was singing at 7 months old, he would turn everything into a beat and dance and he loved music no matter the genre.
