    that's so exciting to know our baby can probably hear us now!!
    I have noticed if i'm laughing out loud or calling out to DH pretty loudly, bubs will stir a fair bit.....
    Also in the car when i have the radio on playing music i get quite a bit of movement too!

    After talking to DH last night about our baby hearing us, he put his mouth to my belly and started singing it was cute

    DS used to sleep during class when the kids were noisy and wake up at recess and lunch!! One of the teavhers at school has a very loud voice and yells fiercely sometimes, I taught next door to her for much of the pg and once when DS was tiny I took him into her classroom when she was yelling at the class, now this woman scares the smaller kids at school until they get to know her but Riley just cooed and smiled while she was yelling cause he knew the sound!! We joke it was a soothing womb noise to him!!
    I have noticed with all my kids that the noise of lots of children playing and shouting doesn't bother them cause they heard it so much in the womb.

    I read that it was around 18 weeks? That's when DH started reading to my belly every night, and I started playing piano to bub

    Unfortunately tho with #2 I think all she heard was me telling DS to stop climbing on the kitchen bench and to put his toys away etc etc. LOL. She had a very different experience in the womb I think! LOL. She also got lots of kisses from her big brother though

    ETA: Oh, and I remember I once at my SIL's she switched on her antiquated LOUD food mixer thing, and the baby did a massive flip! I had to leave the room for him to settle down LOL.

    Now Ren!! I read last week (18wks) that bub can now hear and can already recognise your voice and probably DH's.
