Has Anyone Used Baby Plus?
I'm just curious if anyone has used Baby Plus during their pregnancy? It plays a series of "lessons" that are sounds the baby listens to in utero. They say it can make your baby more calm and "smarter" in the long run. I'm just wondering if any of you have used it, what was your experience?
Thanks,
T.

You don't need this! In fact you can sit down for a half an hour every day and read your unborn child a story or play him or her some music/sing songs. It will even be more effective, since it is YOUR voice and free, too.
In addition it will give you some time to bond with your baby and reflect on your emotions, expectations and hopes... kind of a meditation with your unborn child.
Congrats on the pregnancy and good luck.
PS: most "novelty" items for babies are either useless or can easily be replaced by something that is free. Some have even been shown to do more harm than good, when in doubt... you likely won't need it.

Prebirth binding is a great idea. However, it also has to do with how you are feeling too. I suggest taking other measures to keep yourself calm and relaxed. even if you are not planning a natural birth, I recommend HypnoBirthing for keeping yourself calm and relaxed during pregnancy that can only help both you and your baby prenatally, and life long!

I used it for both my pregnancies because a coworker recommended it.
I don't know if it really worked. Both my daughters are very different and they are only 18 months apart. It's up to you! I thought it wouldn't hurt and may not really help, but I used it :)
