We live right next to a main road and theres construction going on nearby also, so its loud most of the day. Im 6 months now and started worrying if all this noise reaches the baby and bothers him. Anyone else stayed in a noisy area during pregnancy?
I was actually worried about this too because we live near a busy road. Did anyone else feel anxious about loud sounds? I think the regular city noise is ok but I keep wondering.
I worked in an office full of noise till my 8th month, baby is perfectly fine. Just avoid super loud environments for long hours if you can. Otherwise normal life noise wont affect anything.
I kept my home calm and played soft music and bhajans, felt nice for me and baby both. Regular noise is no issue. Just keep your own peace, that matters more honestly.
I asked my gynac and she said the baby can start hearing sounds in the later trimesters and even react to loud noise with a kick. But normal noise is not harmful. She only advised avoiding extremely loud places like very loud concerts for long.
Normal everyday noise like traffic, tv, people talking is totally fine, dont worry about that at all. Its only constant very loud noise like working in a factory setting that needs care. Your baby is well cushioned in there.
