Ritmo Womb Speakers Will Delight Your Unborn Child

011510_rg_RitmoWomb_01.jpgIf you're looking for the perfect way of developing the mind of your unborn child, look no further, because the Ritmo womb speakers will send sound waves directly to your baby.

 
 

It's possible that sending in some sounds might benefit your baby. Look at how many would-be-parents talk to their unborn babies! But wait, if you want to see the scientific evidence, head on over the product's page and you can find quite a bit of it! Seriously though, audio stimulation will undoubtedly help the development of your fetus, if used properly.

We think that it's kind of cute, but we don't suggest that if you get these speakers that you overuse them. Still, the Ritmo Advanced Sound System can play recordings of your voice, your favorite tunes, or anything else you want for your little baby. Apparently reactive listening begins at 17 weeks. Anything that you listen to on your MP3 player or iPod can be shared with your baby at the same time.

We think that it can also help develop a bond between your family and its latest addition. Check out the teaser trailer:

Reminds me of Donnie Darko... "Did you ever think that maybe, babies need darknes?" Or in this case, silence?

Whoops, missed a second "s" there on "darkness."

Sage advice: 'never wake a sleeping baby.'

Therefore, no need to amplify loud noise in womb that is comprised of fluids.

Babies, kids and teens will face so, so much 'noise' (intelligent and nonintelligent) from the moment they enter the world. Moms should spend time to have good thoughts, soothing hearts and loving touches with their inner babies to connect and bond. If gizmos don't work in the outer world to accomplish this why would they work strapped on your fetus?

This seems like a case of an idea creating a "need" rather than necessity begetting an idea.

And why would we think that pumping artificial noise or anything else into a womb is a good idea? In 10 years, someone might get the idea that it caused autism in their child and go to bed feeling guilty.

Keep it simple.

Put the money into starting the college fund.

Thank you ursulanyc, too.
