[.ca] UltraSound - Music For The Un-Born Child: Includes Marks ...

From Amazon.co.uk:
Many hospitals across the US now send new mums and babes home equipped with discs of classical music to soothe and gently stimulate babies' tender minds, Ultrasound does them one better, bringing together a delightfully well-rounded set specifically chosen for those still in the womb. Expectant mums will appreciate the effects of the mellow strains of Bach's Suite No. 3, the delicate playfulness of Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy" and Mozart's proven-to-make-you-smart Sonata for Two Pianos featuring André Previn. Debussy's "Clair de lune" is especially lovely as conducted and fluted by James Galway, and Leontyne Price is a warm blanket of comfort giving voice to Schubert's "Ave Maria". Indeed, these songs are aural balm to both parent and child long after birth. --Paige La Grone

Very soothing, pregnant or not!:
We purchased this CD with the intention of using it for relaxation during natural childbirth using the Bradley method. That didn't work out so well... (that's another story!) But, I found this CD very relaxing during the pregnancy and we use it just as often now in the nursery. Just a nice selection of classical tunes.

Intelligent music for baby...:
I bought this CD when I was 4 months pregnant with my first baby, Irene. From that time on, every single day, I would religiously listen to the music and let my baby listen to it, too(through earphones taped to my tummy.) Now that Irene is 4 months old, we both still listen to it frequently, and her response to the music is as if she knows the songs by heart! I believe it has also made my child more attentive and intelligent as a baby, even as a newborn. I love this CD, and will treasure it as one best purchases I made for my daughter and for myself.

Beautiful sounds for pre-natal...and post!:
This CD has a beautiful mixture of orchestra music great for prenatal and after the baby is born! Sometimes I just like to listen to it by myself to relax.

A great way to start your baby's life:
There is a wonderful mix of heartwarming, light and happy and mind-moving music on this CD. I've found the music to be perfectly soothing as I read and relax with my growing child. I hope the baby is enjoying it as much in utero as I am in my life. By the way, what a clever title!

Love this CD!:
I bought this CD while I was pregnant and played it as much as I could for my unborn child. My husband and I loved listening to it and now that my son is 3 months he LOVES it too. In fact I play this CD for him at bedtime while I nurse him and he just passes out! It's a permanent part of his routine now, my husband plays this for him during the day if he gets cranky and it really helps soothe him, I guess because he recognizes it from when he was in mommy's belly. Defintiely reccommend it!
