Lullabelly is a prenatal music belt that allows you to play music to your baby in the womb. It's believed that babies can start learning while still in the womb (during the third trimester~ not sooner), and the Lullabelly helps, by exposing your baby to stimulating music that you choose, which can help him develop learning, memory, and language skills. The Lullabelly plugs into your MP3 player, CD player, etc, and it comes with an earphone adapter and earphones so mom can listen along with baby. The Lullabelly wraps around mom's belly and plays music to your baby in your belly.
Lullabellies are made in the USA of a soft minky material, and the speaker is removable for easy washing of the belt. It can be worn over or under clothes, and looks a little like a cute fanny pack. A little pocket neatly contains all the electrical attachments and controls, including a volume control and ear phones. It's one size fits all, but a matching extension piece is available for those who still need a bit more room (twins?).
Classical music is believed to be both stimulating to babies as well as relaxing to both baby and mom, so this would be a great way for mom to spent an hour a day destressing, maybe going for a walk while listening to some great music. It's a more convenient way of exposing your baby to music than holding ear phones to your belly that you can't listen along to, or playing music aloud that others may not be interested in hearing. It's also safe- the loudest volume on the Lullabelly is similar to that of a normal conversation, with the option of separately controlling the volume for the wearer.
You can play audiobooks, lullabyes, hymns, anything you want you or your baby to listen to. There are many benefits to playing music to your baby while in the womb in the third trimester, such as:
* Enjoyable and relaxing for both mom and baby.
* Music played to a baby while in the womb captures their attention after birth and relaxes them.
* Encourages early development of memory, language, and learning skills.
* Influences the development of speech and language acquisition after birth.
Buy it! The Lullabelly prenatal music belt can be purchased at Amazon.com. It would make a unique gift for an expectant mom (but not before the third trimester).
Win it! To win a Lullabelly, leave a comment telling me what music you'd play for your baby, and if you'd prefer a pink or blue Lullabelly.

ReplyDeleteI'd love to have a blue one. It sounds wonderful! I hear classical music helps with the child's IQ, not sure how true it is, but I would prefer to have classical music just in case! :) Jenprincess88 at aol dot com
