Patient's question:
Can pregnant women listen to MP3s?Doctor's answer:
Listening to music falls under the category of prenatal education. The stimulation of beautiful melodies is very beneficial for the growth and development of the fetus. However, if the sound is too loud, it becomes noise, especially noise exceeding 100 decibels, which can cause pregnant women to develop gestational hypertension and severe morning sickness, leading to premature birth, low birth weight, hearing damage, and poor brain development in the fetus. Long-term exposure to objects with radiation is even worse for the fetus, so it is best not to use a computer to listen to music. The volume should not exceed 40 decibels. Listening to music should not exceed 30 minutes each time, and no more than 3 times a day. Understanding these conditions is beneficial and harmless to the fetus.
