Concert at 6 Months?

[Ellee05]

As this pregnancy was a surprise, (which we are now so grateful for!) last year I booked tickets to a concert with friends, but as it turns out I will be 6 months pregnant when it is on. I was thinking that I shouldn't go because of hearing damage to baby, but someone said to me that it was only prolonged exposure that causes damage.

What do you think?

If it were me, I wouldn't have even thought about not going, to be honest!! I think bubs is quite well insulated in there!! I know a couple of ladies that went to gigs with kidlets in utero & there have been no issues whatsoever.

Who are you going to see??!

I went to a festival when I was 6 m pg with DS. And I think his hearing is great. I had a great day, and DS didnt seem to mind. He is now a huge music fan. If I put on certain tracks he will fall asleep to them...

I have been to several concerts while pg, including Disturbed (metal) , with no worries at all, the only reason I wouldn't go is if I was worried about the crowd, which is why I didn't go to big day out...I could just imagine someone moshing into me off their face... but im sure the music is fine, maybe ur bub will even dance in there! Enjoy a concert while u can cause once bubs comes u won't have time!

I would go. My DH bought me tickets to Michael Buble just before we found out we were pregnant and then when we found out we were having twins I wasn't even sure I would make it that far in the pregnancy as it was when I was 36 weeks pregnant. Low and behold I made it to the concert (I asked my Ob if I should go or not in case the noise would harm the babies and she said to go)

So at 36 weeks with twins (huge so everybody was staring at me like I was a freak show lol ) I went to the concert. The twins danced around the whole time, having a ball and they love it in the car if I play them some Michael Buble. When they are whinging in the car I can put his CD on and they are instantly quiet!!!

I went to 3 concerts while preg with DD#3 and her hearing seams perfectly fine. I would just make sure you stay hydrated and don't get squashed.

i wanted to go to slipknot but DD1 told me I wasnt allowed because the baby would think there was a war going on hee hee

but yeah i think you will be fine, i am missing out on nails this time because i cant leave the baby, and i think it would be toomuch carrying her around all day at soundwaves!!
