Infants And Pregnancy
Posted: 06-07-07 12:37pm

Hi,
My sister-in-law is about 6 months pregnant now. About a week ago, a friend of hers brought her infant over to visit. While my sister-in-law was holding the child, she did the most interesting thing...she put her head to my sister-in-law's stomach and appeared to be listening attentively. In fact, it was difficult to get her to leave my sis-in-law...seemed like she was really into listening to her stomach. My question is - can infants hear activity with the baby in the stomach? I don't know if this is a common thing, or not.

The infant was all smiles while this was going on also...seemed very interested.

Thanks in advance.

That is just so cute. Can't help you there, but I would have loved to see that!

Not surprising, my almost two-year old daughter knew I was pregnant before I did. She kept pointing to my belly and saying "baby.. aww baby" and all I could do was think "oh lord not now lol. not another baby - give me a year!" and sure enough I was pregnant. She was the best hpt money could buy lol!
