Discover what babies hear in the womb
Talking to your bump encourages you to bond with your baby in pregnancy, but when should you start? Why is it important? And what exactly can your baby hear? We asked our panel of experts, including a neuroscientist and a speech therapist, as well as mums and mums-to-be, for their thoughts about building this early mother–child relationship and creating an ‘auditory home’.
Our panel of mums and experts, moderated by award-winning journalist Poorna Bell, share personal stories and discuss the science behind the development of hearing in the womb and its longer-term impact on communication and bonding.
Tummy Talks is a new series of informative and entertaining roundtable discussions aimed at helping mums like you discover the amazing benefits of talking to their bumps during pregnancy. We’ve asked our panel of experts, from experienced mums to neuroscientists, to discuss practical, personal and proven ways you can give your baby the very best start in life.
