Dr. Norman A. Ravski, Assistant Clinical Professor, Department of
Obstetrics and Gynecology at Yale University School of Medicine, and
Attending Physician at Yale New Haven Hospital, has endorsed playing
classical music to your baby. In his endorsement, Dr. Ravski states,
"In-utero fetal acoustic stimulation has been shown to improve preg-
nancy outcomes as well as benefi t the growing fetus." The BébéSounds
Prenatal Gift Set enables you to direct our specially selected classical
music through your womb to your baby with our Fetal Speakers.
It is also believed that your newborn baby will recognize the voices
of her parents immediately after birth if they are heard while in the
womb. In addition to stimulating your baby, talking to her will help your
baby's father bond with her. Talk and sing to your unborn baby using
the BébéSounds
your voices so they will be heard over the other noises inside the womb.
When speaking to your baby, keep in mind that the fi rst step in your
baby's development of language skills is the recognition of intonations
so it is important for both parents to speak to their child. Although
the mother's voice tends to be more melodic and is constantly heard,
the father's voice is louder and deeper and penetrates the womb
more easily.
It is always a good idea to keep your doctor informed of what you
are doing during your pregnancy. Therefore, we encourage you to inform
your doctor that you will be stimulating your unborn baby with the

BébéSounds
Prenatal Gift Set.
