By the fifth month, your unborn baby can hear and respond to sounds outside the womb.

So why not let him get his groove on with Bellybuds ($50)?

Instead of holding clunky headphones up to your bump, these comfy “bellyphones” adhere to your belly with medical grade, reusable hydrogel rings.

Just plug them into your iPod or MP3 player — and you’re all set.

It even comes with a “Y-Splitter” so you and your unborn tot can listen to the same tunes simultaneously.

And don’t worry about the sound getting too loud. They’re designed so that the volume is never too high for your child’s developing ears.
