First Beat

We saw the heartbeat the other day. It was insane. It looked like the world's tiniest lima bean strobe light.

Which gave me an idea.




Just a little Eazy E and Barbra Streisand.

No. Not really.

More like a heavy dose of Bach with a little inappropriate eighties punk when Andrew isn't paying attention.

This is going to sound crazy, but start singing. Pick a couple of favorite songs and sing them to yourself (at like normal volume, not whispery) and to the baby. When they're out-utero, those songs will help calm them in the early times, because they can hear your voice and feel the vibrations of your vocal chords as they grow.

I totally just used it to put Kiedis to bed tonight, and at 2.5 yrs old, it's still working. :)

Congratulations! I loved every single ultrasound that we had, the best ones are when you're towards the very end of your pregnancy and you can make out their littles toes, fingers and facial features. So exciting!

And I'm one of those people who sings at the top of their lungs in the car so I never bothered to put headphones up to my belly. I figured she was hearing all of hits whenever I was singing them. LOL
